* Defense Minister Israel Katz:* Defense Minister Israel Katz announced that he has decided to approve the list of appointments in the IDF for the ranks of colonel and lieutenant colonel as recommended by the Chief of Staff. The Minister of Defense has decided not to approve at this stage the appointments of the two officers from the Southern Command, Lake Officer Ephraim Avni and Engineering Officer Almog Dadon, who are designated for promotion, until he thoroughly examines their connection to the events of October 7 and their performance during the war. As part of examining the issue, he intends to also meet with the observer families from the Nahal Oz outpost to allow them to voice their position on the issue. *Communications of the Minister of Defense*<\/div>\n\n
