FIDF Live Briefing: IDF Spokesperson LTC. Michal Frenkel – December 17, 2023

FIDF Chief Executive Officer Steve Weil welcomes IDF Spokesperson LTC. Michal Frenkel who provides a briefing on how the war is unfolding. LTC. Frenkel updates us on the IDF engaging in deep battles with Hamas and the dismantling of its military structure, the numbers of those lost and injured and the number of rockets launched at Israel during the war, the IDF's discovery of tunnel shafts in Gaza, the tragic event of the accidental shooting of hostages, and the opening of the Kerem Shalom crossing for direct aid to Gaza. Maj. Gen. (Res.) and FIDF National Director Nadav Padan offers thoughts and insights on the evolution and process of how and when Israel can feel like it can declare victory of the war, the pressure the 2024 U.S. Presidential election might create in this situation, the status of the Rafah Border crossing, the hope for a leadership that cooperates and can provide better life for the people in Gaza, how depleted Hamas's weaponry inventory is due to the IDF's activity in Gaza, and more.
