Daniel Hagari (Hebrew: דניאל "דני" הגרי; born 1976) is an Israel Defense Forces Rear Admiral (Tat-Aluf) who currently serves as the head of the IDF Spokesperson's Unit.

Hagari joined the Israel Defense Forces in March 1995, and volunteered to the naval special operations unit, Shayetet 13.

[2] In 2007, Hagari was promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel (Sgan-Aluf) and appointed commander of a vessel squadron in Shayetet 13, and served in this position until 2009.

Hagari's appointment was the continuation of a recent policy to tap career military officials instead of civilian journalists as head of the Spokesperson's Unit.

[10][11] Eventually, an Israeli spokesperson noted a translation error in Hagari's statement and stated that the video of his commentary distributed to the media had been corrected, with the specific reference to the document deleted.
