Defense Minister Israel Katz held a working meeting Monday morning with IAF Commander Maj. Gen. Omer Tishler, who presented the force's operational picture and readiness posture across all theaters, alongside ongoing force-building efforts, the Defense Ministry said.
The meeting at IAF headquarters comes as the Israeli Air Force continues to operate across multiple fronts in the ongoing multi-arena conflict. A relatively routine command briefing, it nonetheless signals attention to force readiness amid sustained operations. No specific operational decisions or new directives were announced following the meeting. Defense Minister Katz has held a series of security briefings in recent weeks, including a conversation with US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth on June 15.
