In 1984–1985 he commanded Shaldag Unit in the clandestine airlift of 7,000 endangered Beta Israel (or "Falasha") Jews from Ethiopia to Israel in what was known as "Operation Moses" and in special operations in Lebanon.

His daughter Shoham was born with a severe injury to an artery in her heart, and died a month after her birth in 1991.

Almog founded Aleh Negev, a village for the disabled which provides residential, medical and social services to the handicapped of southern Israel.

After Eran's death, Aleh Negev's name was changed to Nachalat Eran.

2000

In his most recent post, as head of the IDF Southern Command from 2000 to 2003 he secured the border of the Gaza Strip against infiltration by Palestinian militants.

2003

Five members of the Almog family from Haifa - Ze'ev Almog, 71, his wife Ruth, 70, their son Moshe, 43, and grandsons Tomer Almog, 9, and Assaf Staier, 11 - were killed in the suicide bombing of Maxim restaurant in Haifa on October 4, 2003, while Oran Almog, 10, was grievously injured and blinded.

Almog lives in Ness Ziona.

2005

On September 10, 2005, as Almog and his wife arrived in London on an El Al flight to do fundraising for Aleh, a handicapped services organization which he helped found, Almog was informed by the Israeli Embassy that a warrant had been issued for his arrest on suspicion of violating the 1949 Geneva Convention in connection with home destructions in Gaza.

The warrant was issued by Chief London Magistrate Timothy Workman of the Bow Street Magistrates' Court.

The petition had been filed by Daniel Machover and Kate Maynard, attorneys for the Palestinian Centre for Human Rights.

Metropolitan Police counter-terrorism officers were stationed at the immigration desk.

Almog was to be arrested when he presented himself but the Israeli military attache advised him to stay on the plane and return to Israel.

Almog and his wife remained on the plane for two hours before it took off for Ben Gurion Airport.

It later emerged that the senior counter-terrorism officer in charge of the operation had feared for public safety and the diplomatic impact of confronting El Al sky marshals and Almog's bodyguards.

A second concern was the legal implications of boarding the plane after El Al had refused police entry.

British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw apologized to his Israeli counterpart over the incident and said that the warrant has been withdrawn.

The Guardian reported that the UK government was "examining stopping private individuals applying to magistrates for prosecutions over war crimes..."

A review by Independent Police Complaints Commission was unable to identify the source of the leak.

2009

In 2009, Almog was among the Israeli officials investigated by the National Court, a special and exceptional court in Spain, over the 2002 assassination of Hamas official Salah Shehade.

The investigation was dropped on grounds that the attack had already been investigated by Israel.

2013

Almog was given the responsibility for carrying out the Bill on the Arrangement of Bedouin Settlement in the Negev, which also led to 2013 Israeli protests.

2016

In 2016, he received the Israel Prize for his lifetime of achievement.
