New Recruits Join Israeli Combat Engineering Corps Amid Ongoing Conflict
After nearly three years of continuous warfare, the Israeli Combat Engineering Corps is viewed differently by the public, gaining recognition for its critical role. New recruits express admiration for the corps, with one soldier noting, "They are always the first, and I heard they accomplished great things during the fighting." The ongoing conflict has deeply affected families, as one recruit's mother shared her hope that Iran would attack to delay her son's enlistment. This shift in perception highlights the evolving importance of the Combat Engineering Corps within the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) as it continues to play a vital role in national defense. The story was featured in a special project titled "Welcome to the IDF."
