Eyal Zamir has warned that the military could face serious problems if troop shortages are not addressed.

He raised concerns during a security meeting, saying the situation could affect operations across multiple regions.

Military sources say there are not enough personnel to manage ongoing demands in places like Gaza Strip, Lebanon, and Syria.

Officials believe the shortage may create gaps in security and weaken defense readiness.

The issue has been linked to debates over conscription laws and military recruitment policies.

Opposition leaders are calling for urgent reforms to strengthen the armed forces and improve national security.
