What is Happening on our Northern Border with Syria and Lebanon?

Date: August 20, 2025

Time: 12 noon, Eastern Standard Time, 7 p.m. Jerusalem Time

Featuring Lieutenant Colonel Sarit Zehavi of the Israeli Alma Center


As assurances have been made that Hezbollah will be disbanded in Lebanon, and the Syrian government of Ahmed al-Sharaa has been charged with war crimes, we are inviting Lieutenant Colonel Sarit Zehavi of the Alma Center in Israel to analyze and discuss how Israel can handle all of the myriad demands on its armed forces and how to best protect their civilian population.

About Our Speaker:

Lieutenant Colonel (Res.) Sarit Zehavi is the founder and president of Alma, a nonprofit and an independent research and education center specializing in Israel’s security challenges on its northern border. Sarit has briefed hundreds of groups and forums, ranging from US Senators, Congressmen/women, and politicians to senior journalists and visiting VIP groups in Israel and overseas. Sarit scripts numerous position papers and updates focusing on Lebanon, Syria, and Israel’s national security challenges. She served for 15 years in the Israeli Defense Forces, specializing in military intelligence, holds an M.A. in Middle East Studies from Ben-Gurion University, and is also a member of Forum Devora, promoting the equal representation of women in key decision-making positions in the fields of national security and foreign policy. Her unique achievements led her to be selected by the Jerusalem Post as one of the Top 50 Most Influential Jews of 2021.

Sarit lives in the Western Galilee.
