Yitzhak Arad (Hebrew: יצחק ארד; né Icchak Rudnicki; November 11, 1926 – May 6, 2021) was an Israeli historian, author, IDF brigadier general and Soviet partisan. He also served as Yad Vashem's director from 1972 to 1993, and specialised in the history of the Holocaust.

What the highlighted wording does

㉓ Reviewed in the sweep
Yitzhak Arad was Yad Vashem's longtime director and a Soviet partisan during World War II. Through 2015 the opening said "it was revealed in the 2000s that he had served in the NKVD and from 2006, he was investigated for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Lithuania." Today's opening carries none of this, though war crime survives once in the body. A reader today does not learn that Lithuania opened a war crimes investigation into Arad.
