from FIDF Live · host Friends of The IDF
FIDF Chief Executive Officer Steve Weil is joined by 2nd Lt. Tammy Shur, Head of the International Digital Department in the IDF Spokesperson Unit who speaks about leading the international social media efforts for the IDF. 2nd Lt. Shur details her experience on the morning of October 7, her perspective of "the war of fake news", the challenges of being labeled a propaganda channel, how they are using influencers to spread content to new audiences, facing internal dilemmas like how to handle acquiring and sharing footage of the atrocities of October 7, how Hamas has raided the 300+ trucks of humanitarian aid Israel is sending in to Gaza every day. FIDF National Director Maj. Gen. (Res.) Nadav Padan then joins us from Israel to add insight on the reliable, verified information coming from the IDF Spokesperson Unit, updates on Yemen, Iran, and other activities within the Middle East, the damages inflicted on the Houthis, the current challenges in Northern Israel, ongoing defense of the South, the IDF's discovery of a sub terrain system that once held 20 Israeli hostages, the status of the operation in Judea and Samaria, how he views the success of what is happening in Gaza, and how more strategic successes can be achieved.
