Mediterranean music singer Moshe Peretz arrived today at the Galatz radio studios as part of promoting his new song. According to the song's title, "Arak and Eshkoliot," Peretz came to the studio with an arak bottle.

According to the report by Shil Meshali from the 'Mako' website, it was reported that after the incident became known to Galatz commander, Danny Zaken, he approached Peretz and asked him to remove the arak bottle from the camp's premises, as it is against the IDF regulations.

Peretz's team members tried to explain that it was a humorous act to lift the mood, but ultimately, they had to return the bottle to the car.

On behalf of Moshe Peretz, it was stated, "Everything was done in good spirits, and even without the arak, we uplifted the studio's atmosphere."

The IDF spokesperson stated, "In accordance with military orders, the artist's team was asked to remove the alcoholic beverage from the station, and the request was immediately complied with. All of this was done in proper etiquette and in a pleasant manner."
