In his summary of 2020, IDF Chief of Staff Aviv Kochavi noted Friday that “the Iranian establishment in Syria is in a clear slowdown, but we still have a long way to go to complete the goals in the arena.”
“We have struck over 500 targets this year, on all fronts, in addition to multiple clandestine missions,” he said.
Kochavi also revealed that the IDF “carried out many offensive” cyberattacks, which he said is “the most significant combat arena that has changed this year.”
