Smotrich backs Givati soldiers jailed after refusing APC with female paramedic
“I support the Givati soldiers who insisted on their right and duty to serve in the IDF while preserving their values and faith and while adhering to the Joint Service Order,” Smotrich said.
Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich expressed support for religious Givati Brigade soldiers who were jailed after refusing to board a Namer armored personnel carrier with a female paramedic during an operational mission in the Gaza Strip. Smotrich stated, "I support the Givati soldiers who insisted on their right and duty to serve in the IDF while preserving their values and faith." He added that he would demand answers from the IDF regarding the incident, noting that the soldiers have the full backing of Hesder Yeshivot Association rabbis. The soldiers were prosecuted by court-martial, a disciplinary process that the IDF was reportedly displeased to see published before verdicts.
