New Mossad Director Roman Gofman Officially Takes Over on Day 965 — Netanyahu Vows Iran Regime 'Destined to Pass'

New Mossad Director Roman Gofman officially assumed leadership of Israel's intelligence agency on June 2, 2026 (Day 965), following the Supreme Court's clearance on June 1. Netanyahu held a welcoming ceremony for Gofman and declared that Iran's regime is 'destined to pass,' vowing that Israel will help ensure it does. Gofman, a former deputy director, inherits an agency that has carried out the targeted killings of five senior Hamas leaders since October 7, 2023: Ismail Haniyeh (July 2024 in Tehran), Yahya Sinwar (October 2024 in Rafah), Mohammed Sinwar (May 13, 2026 in Khan Yunis), Izz al-Din al-Haddad (May 16, 2026 in Gaza City), and Mohammed Odeh (May 26, 2026 in Rimal). Gofman's Mossad will oversee ongoing intelligence operations against Hamas's remaining military structure, coordination of ceasefire negotiations, and operations against Iran's nuclear and missile programs.
