Aviv Kohavi wraps up his term as chief of staff and talks about plans for war with Hezbollah, and preparations for an attack on Iran. Although the public might not feel it, the IDF is constantly operating, seeing action, and preparing for war.
Lt.-Gen. Aviv Kohavi, the IDF chief of staff, will hang up his uniform on Monday after more than 40 years of service. One success he takes pride in is denying Iran the ability to establish a “Hezbollah II” in Syria.
Kohavi warned that if a new war broke out with Hezbollah, Israel would send Lebanon 50 years back in time through what he called “waves of firepower” that Israel would unleash on the Iranian-backed militia group, as well as against Lebanese national infrastructure.
“Hezbollah and [Sheikh Hassan] Nasrallah know that Lebanon will be hit in an unprecedented way, which it has never experienced in its history,” Kohavi said. “A third Lebanon war will see a powerful attack that they have never experienced. They know this.”
