    IDF is asking for censor approval for all reporting. This has nothing to do with secret information or hiding OSINT.

    A good army doesn’t need to pressure international media under the guise of military secrecy because a good army would keep its assets hidden.

    The US army doesn’t go around asking news groups to alter reporting for any reason. If any military info leaked, then it’s a huge deal and it gets published. Last notable incident being Snowden.

      Even when Destin from smarter every day was called to film on a us submarine has clearley said that all footage was sent for approval before he could publish or edit them. For the exact same reason.
