Following an unusual protest by soldiers of the 'Tzabar' battalion in the Givati Brigade, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) has issued a strict ultimatum demanding all soldiers return to their base by 4 p.m. The order came after dozens of soldiers left their base in Sde Teyman in protest against their battalion commander, whom they accused of destroying signs and equipment they had prepared. The IDF warned that any soldier failing to return by the deadline would be immediately classified as absent without leave (AWOL), with their names forwarded to the military police and disciplinary proceedings initiated against them. Such soldiers risk losing their combatant status, all logistical support, and eligibility for the battalion's routine leave.
Conversely, soldiers who comply and return on time will continue their routine duties and will be granted their scheduled leave as planned, including going home the following day. The incident marks one of the largest mutinies within the IDF in recent times, with soldiers publicly stating they will not remain silent about their grievances. The protest reportedly erupted after the battalion commander destroyed materials prepared by the soldiers, escalating tensions and prompting the mass departure from the base.
The IDF is working to resolve the situation without further escalation. The soldier who initiated the protest told reporters he confronted the battalion commander, questioning his actions. The military has emphasized the importance of discipline and order while addressing the soldiers' concerns internally.
