Colonel (Res.) Avichay Adraee is one of Israel's most recognizable public figures in the Arab world and served for nearly two decades as the Israel Defense Forces' Arabic-language spokesperson.

Adraee has represented the IDF in thousands of interviews with leading Arab media outlets and has amassed millions of followers online, becoming a trusted source of information for journalists and citizens across the Arab world. His influence is such that, in some circles, he has been nicknamed ‘Hezbollah's Supreme Leader’ - a testament to his visibility and impact.
