Israel's Defense Minister Israel Katz said the military has been ordered to ready for a comprehensive war scenario in the event of a 'reversal of fronts,' according to Ynet. The directive was issued during a security assessment on Monday.
In a statement carried by Ynet, Defense Minister Israel Katz said he has instructed the IDF to prepare a plan for a full-scale war in the event of a 'reversal of fronts' (hipukh kanim) — a scenario where the current primary theater of conflict shifts, likely to the northern arena. The directive underscores the government's assessment that a multi-front escalation remains a serious contingency. Katz did not provide further details on timelines or specific triggers. The statement comes amid ongoing tensions along Israel's borders and follows previous warnings from security officials about the potential for broader confrontation.
