Gen. Michael "Erik" Kurilla, the commander of US Central Command, is scheduled to visit "Israel" on Friday and meet with senior officials to talk about the ongoing war on Gaza and the situation in northern occupied Palestine.
For weeks, the US has worked through various channels to keep the war from spreading to other parts of the region, out of fear that its troops might be exposed to Resistance attacks.
This is Kurilla's second trip to the Israeli occupation and he is expected to meet with security minister Yoav Gallant, IOF head Herzi Halevi, and other intelligence officials who will be briefing the US general on their ongoing assault on the ground in Gaza, along with their objectives moving forward.
Israeli media has been discussing developments on the border with the Resistance, as well as concern about the northern front with Hezbollah, calling it a "huge challenge" to the occupation.
