Daniel Hegry caused a lot of uproar during his tenure, often angering ministers and right-wing supporters.
Last night, Zamir appointed Major General Yaniv Asor as commander of Southern Command, and Brigadier General Itzik Cohen will be promoted to the rank of major general and appointed head of the Operations Division.
According to Channel 14's military and security correspondent, it is clear that Chief of Staff Zamir is here to make changes: The two appointments in question are of a completely different kind than what we have been accustomed to to date, and are expected to introduce a 'new spirit' to the current General Staff forum.
In addition to them, about ten new generals are expected to be appointed, who are supposed to join the General Staff Forum, which has a total of 25 generals - which will change its face.
