I guess the answer to that would depend on if you asked a Brit, an American, or an Israeli.

Israel as it has control over comparable agencies that in the UK or USA would be civilian(ie Mossad is a military agency).

Several agencies provide intelligence to UK forces, Defence Intelligence Service (DIS), MI5, MI6 and then the individual intelligence units of the respective armed forces.

They aren't actually military intelligence though and neither is GCHQ. Well SIS and the Security Service aren't anyway. Otherwise you could say the CIA provide British Military with intelligence which they do but they aren't British Military.

Defence Intelligence Service has both civilian and military personnel.

DIS are part of the MOD but SIS, SS and GHCQ which are the 3 main intelligence agencies in the UK aren't.

Mossad is the foreign intelligence service like the SIS-MI6 or the CIA, not military. Shin Bet is the equivalent of Mi5/Special Brach (since MI5 do not have arresting powers) and the FBI. Aman is like your DIS and DIA.
