Israeli Soldiers Refuse to Serve in Gaza

Dozens of Israeli reserve soldiers are refusing to return to fight in Gaza Hebrew sites show and their number is growing by the day.

This is part of a wider and emerging trend of  100s of reserve soldiers are going abroad every month to avoid being drafted in the Israeli army and forced to serve in Gaza.

The daily Haaretz newspaper states that reservist soldiers simply don’t care about the high risk punishment. Their main concern is the heavy losses the Israeli army is facing in the enclave.

This piece of news is trending on the social media. One writes these reserve soldiers are declaring their refusal to return to military service.

Thirty reserve soldiers in the Paratroopers Brigade said they refused to serve in the military operations in Rafah. According to the Hebrew Channel 12 their refusal to participate emenates from their state of exhaustion after seven months of battles in Gaza.  

Back in early April, there were reports that more than 100 reserve soldiers refused to serve at the training base on the border with Gaza.

According to the testimonies, as IDF soldiers leave Lebanon, they load stolen items onto their vehicles openly, without attempting to conceal them. “It’s on a crazy scale,” one soldier said. “Anyone who takes something – televisions, cigarettes, tools, whatever – immediately puts it in their vehicle or leaves it off to the side, not inside the army base, but it’s not hidden. Everyone sees it and understands.” – The Palestine Project
