BG (Res.) Hanan Gefen, Former Chief, Unit 8200

The Israel Defense Forces produced several excellent organizations - its Air Force, Paratroops, Armor and Special Forces perhaps most prominent. Lately, in light of its much-lauded Intelligence Community, one unit of the Military Intelligence Corps gained particular prominence - Unit 8200, Israel’s National Security Agency (or Government Communications Headquarters) and Cyber Command.

Reserve Brigadier General Hanan Gefen, a former Commanding Officer of 8200, has a unique perspective on the professional and managerial challenges involved in running this secretive advanced technological unit, interfacing with customers and counterparts, moving between the worlds of Sigint and Cyber and cultivating young talents which then go on to help Israel’s Hi-Tech industry.

“I have set watchmen upon thy walls, O Jerusalem, [which] shall never hold their peace day nor night” (Isaiah 62:6)

They are the men and women who have stood guard over Israel. When their countrymen slept, these Watchmen could be counted on to fight for Israel and its capital, Jerusalem, on its numerous fronts. Now, one by one, they are coming to TV7’s Jerusalem studio for in-depth interviews by TV7 Analyst and Host Amir Oren, a veteran observer of the Israeli - and global - defense and government scenes.

They will share their stories, insights and some revelations in a way sure to enlighten our viewers who are encouraged to keep these topics in prayer ~ Psalm 122.
