Ministry of Defense Director General Awards Certificate of Appreciation to Ashdod Port

Ashdod Port CEO, Nissan Levy, received a special letter of appreciation and recognition from the Director General of the Israeli Ministry of Defense, Major General (Res.) Amir Baram. The honor was awarded in light of the port's dramatic and direct contribution to the success of a complex and large-scale logistics transport operation, carried out at the company's piers last week for the defense establishment.

As part of the special logistics operation, advanced munitions, operational vehicles, and essential military equipment destined for combat forces in the field were transported to Israel within short and urgent timeframes. In his letter, the Director General of the Ministry of Defense emphasized that the complex mission was executed to the highest professional and operational standards, demonstrating flexibility, efficiency, and close cooperation between defense officials, port management, and employees.

The defense establishment and the Ministry of Defense emphasized Ashdod Port's strategic role as a central lifeline and a vital gateway for maintaining operational continuity, supply, and the national security of the State of Israel during emergencies. Major General Baram expressed deep appreciation in his letter to the work teams and dockworkers at the port, who mobilized for the national mission out of deep commitment and extraordinary dedication.

In the logistics and shipping industry, experts note that the functional continuity of seaports is a necessary condition for the nation's resilience, both in the civilian aspect of cargo flow and trade and in the security aspect of the military supply chain. Ashdod Port management stated that port employees will continue to stand at the forefront of operational activity and provide a fast and precise response to all of Israel's strategic needs at all times.
