Hesder Soldiers Allowed to Leave Before Women's Singing at Ceremony

Summarized from Israel National News by baba

RightNeutral tone

English · Sole source

Hesder soldiers will be allowed to leave a ceremony before women's singing, a change implemented after initial objections. The decision by the Golani Training Base commander followed efforts by Rabbi Uri Levy. The ceremony, commemorating soldiers fallen in the October 7 war, will also see Hesder soldiers excluded from the honor guard. The change aims to accommodate religious soldiers while maintaining ceremony unity.
