Ministers are set to vote on a proposal to rename the recent conflict from 'Swords of Iron' to 'War of Rebirth' at the upcoming cabinet meeting, the first since the war's end. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has advocated for the new name for over a year, with Defense Minister Israel Katz supporting the initiative. The draft resolution emphasizes that the war, which began on October 7, 2023, and spanned seven fronts, marks a significant milestone in the country's history. The name 'War of Rebirth' has already appeared on official government websites, reflecting its growing acceptance. Opposition leader Yair Lapid criticized the proposal, calling for an apology instead of a symbolic renaming.
