Israel names Hofi as acting chief of staff in 1973 war shakeup
Maj. Gen. Itzhak Hofi replaces Lt. Gen. David Elazar who resigned after a commission found him unprepared for the October war. Elazar handed in his letter of resignation as front reports noted unusual activity behind Syrian lines and Israel kept high alert on the Golan Heights amid ongoing artillery exchanges. Passover is celebrated as the region remains tense six months after Yom Kippur.
