The Attorney General has informed the High Court of Justice (Bagatz) that approximately 110,000 individuals are currently evading mandatory military service in the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). In a filing to the court, the Attorney General called for the implementation of additional sanctions against these draft dodgers.

The precise number of individuals evading service was presented as part of ongoing legal proceedings concerning the issue of military conscription and exemptions. The Attorney General's office emphasized the need for more robust measures to address the significant number of individuals not fulfilling their legal obligation to serve in the IDF.

While the article does not detail the specific sanctions proposed, it indicates a push for stricter enforcement and penalties. The filing to the High Court suggests a growing concern within the legal and military establishment regarding the scale of draft evasion and its potential impact on national security and societal fairness.
