Defense Minister Israel Katz published a campaign video for the upcoming Likud primaries on Monday, according to Army Radio journalists Moriah Asraf and Doron Kadosh. The video features photos and footage of Katz with IDF soldiers and officers and of IDF strikes, which the journalists said represents a political use of the military and an attempt to divert attention from the controversy over the dismissal of Central Command chief Maj. Gen. Avi Blot.
The video, which includes footage of IDF operations and Katz alongside soldiers, was published Monday afternoon. It drew immediate criticism from Army Radio journalists Moriah Asraf and Doron Kadosh, who argued it represents a political use of the military to divert attention from the controversy surrounding the dismissal of Central Command chief Maj. Gen. Avi Blot. Earlier Monday, the same journalists criticized Katz for treating the IDF General Staff as a 'reality show' ahead of the Likud primaries, as The Zioneer reported.
