• He was appointed as Mossad chief with the formal start date set for mid-2026, succeeding David Barnea.[3][4]
• Gofman is a career IDF officer with no prior intelligence background and previously served as Netanyahu’s military secretary, a path that sparked discussion about leadership style and institutional continuity within Israel’s intelligence community.[5][3]
