Israeli military official resigns amid soldier shortage
Dean Shay Tzvi, head of the Planning and Personnel Management Division in the Israeli Army, confirmed that the army is still suffering from a significant shortage of soldiers, estimated at around 12,000 troops, which could rise to 17,000 if military operations continue. This hampers the army’s ability to meet operational needs and to ease the burden on active forces, especially in combat units and support roles. Despite a 36% increase in reserve forces since October 2023 and the recruitment of over 4,000 Haredim within a year, the numbers are still insufficient to meet the army’s requirements.
