Yair Nave

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Major General Yair Nave is an officer in the Israel Defense Forces and currently the head of Israeli Central Command. Yair was previously the head of Israeli Home Front Command until nominated by former Prime Minister Ariel Sharon to his current post. It is believed by some Israelis that Sharon nominated Nave because he is one of the highest ranked religious officers, and that as head of Central Command, he would be forced to carry out the evacuation of West Bank settlments in 2005^[1].
