Former Israeli Army Int'l Chief Wants to Assassinate Syrian President Assad
TEHRAN (defapress)- Major General Aviv Kochavi, incoming Chief of Staff for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), once planned to have Syrian President Bashar al-Assad killed for his support for Hezbollah, a media outlet reported.
The UK-based Saudi newspaper Elaph quoted an unnamed senior Israeli official as saying that when serving as the IFD's Director of Military Intelligence, Kovachi was in favor of toppling Assad, even if it meant resorting to assassination.
However, Aviv Kochavi's proposal was reportedly rejected by the Israeli military.
