Brigadier General (res.) Ofer Winter alleged that IDF Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi opposed Prime Minister Netanyahu's request for Winter to become his military advisor, calling it "inappropriate." This dispute occurred five days before a conflict began. Winter claims Halevi asked him to resign, but the IDF denies these allegations.
