Commanders and leaders

In the Israeli side of the commanders and leaders sidebar, two people don't belong and should be removed: Issac Herzog is a ceremonial president and has no say in policy whatsoever. Daniel Hagari is the IDF spokesperson and as such also doesn't set policy. The IDF spokesperson is a highly visible position but it is not an influential command position in the IDF. 77.126.55.246 (talk) 09:11, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

There was NO mention of the hostages that were taken in the October 7 attack. I think that this fact is vital to understand the difference between this war and others.

Please add into the description of the October 7 attack on Israel by Hamas that civilians were taken hostage. Thank you. 147.235.204.180 (talk) 12:53, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Charliehdb (talk) 13:39, 9 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Change title to 2024 Iran—Israel confontations

The use of the word “conflict,” while relevant, encompasses a a broad scope of possible engagements, intensities, and continuous high tension. A possible better word would be “confrontations,” plural to reflect the different phases and engagements as well as the intensity of the conflict being below that of war. 35.130.105.90 (talk) 15:14, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Extended Confirmed edit request on 1 October 2024

Add some mention of the October 1 strikes in the lead paragraph. This was a major attack, at least as severe as the April one, and is relevant to the conflict. Jerdle (talk) 17:59, 1 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Full list of "supported commanders" necessary?

In the infobox, there is a full list of commanders from the US, UK, France, and Jordan that seems excessive. I understand that there are underlying political attachments between Israel and those states, but it seems like a huge stretch to consider RIshi Sunak or Sébastien Lecornu as at all "involved" in this conflict in any meaningful way. How do folks feel about cutting that list down to just key commanders, just Israeli and Iranian folks involded? JaacTreee (talk) 15:49, 3 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
