"Shoulder to Shoulder": Inside the IDF-US Military Coordination Against Iran
"כתף אל כתף": התיאום בין צה"ל לצבא ארצות הברית
Summary
The war against Iran is being conducted with exceptionally close military coordination between Israel and the United States, reaching an unprecedented peak. A key factor is Israel's transfer to the US Central Command (CENTCOM) area of responsibility five years ago, which has deepened operational integration. Retired Lt. Col. Yanir Kafach, former head of the US branch in the IDF Planning Directorate, explains how the two militaries are coordinating the campaign and what it means for the future of bilateral security ties.
