Top US Middle East commander under Army investigation - what happened?
Army investigators started looking into an incident involving the head of US Middle East command. The case comes during complex times with Gaza situation‚ but details remain under wraps
The US Armyʼs criminal division has started checking into an un-specified case that involves Gen. Michael “Erik“ Kurilla who runs all military work in Middle-East region
Army CID rep Mark Lunardi gave a short note about their work: “We know of this thing and weʼre checking it“ (he didnt share more info about what exactly happened)
The timing isnt great — its happening while US handles lots of mid-east tasks with Gaza problems. Kurilla leads CENTCOM from their base in Tampa and manages all US forces in that busy area
The whole thing seems pretty hush-hush for now‚ with officials being super-careful about what they say. The Army just confirmed that yes‚ Gen. Kurilla is part of what theyʼre looking at; but thats about it — no hints about whats really going on behind-the-scenes
