Dozens of mothers of combat soldiers, organized by the group 'Ema Era' (Alert Mother), protested Saturday morning outside the home of IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir, calling on him to take responsibility and protect soldiers' lives from what they described as dangerous political decisions in Lebanon. Co-founder Dr. Rotem Sivan said leadership should bring solutions, not turn the northern border into a 'broken war machine bleeding our children's blood.'
Around 08:30 Saturday morning, dozens of mothers of IDF combat soldiers staged a protest outside the official residence of IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir in Tel Aviv. The demonstrators, affiliated with the grassroots group 'Ema Era' (Alert Mother), called on the chief of staff to take personal responsibility and protect soldiers from what they termed dangerous political decisions regarding operations in Lebanon.
Dr. Rotem Sivan, a co-founder of the movement, was quoted as saying that leadership means providing solutions, not turning the northern border into a 'broken war machine that bleeds our children's blood.' The protest reflects growing public anxiety among military families over the duration and direction of IDF operations on the northern front, particularly as the theater transitions into a high-intensity campaign against Hezbollah infrastructure.
No additional demands or planned actions were detailed in the initial reports from N12.
