Zamir Honors US Bravo Air-Defense Battery Commander

The IDF said July 3 at 10:06 IDT that Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir awarded an IDF certificate of appreciation to Capt. Nathan John Furno, commander of the U.S. Bravo battery, and other battery commanders. The award recognized the Bravo battery's troops and the wider American air-defense array deployed in Israel during the war, which helped protect Israeli civilians from wartime aerial threats. The ceremony underscored the practical U.S.-Israel alliance: Israeli resilience is strongest when sovereign Israeli command works with trusted American military partnership.
