CENTCOM was angered after Defense Minister Yisrael Katz publicly disclosed that U.S. aircraft operating from Israeli bases had carried out strikes against Iran in recent weeks, according to Al Hadath, citing an anonymous IDF source.
The disclosure reportedly exposed sensitive operational details, prompting IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir to apologize to CENTCOM Commander Adm. Brad Cooper. Israel also raised its alert level following the incident.
