Israeli army faces historic depletion
An Israeli report has revealed that the Israeli army is suffering from unprecedented depletion, with an average of 53,000 reserve soldiers. This comes amid a decline in manpower and a reduction in military equipment due to years of continuous fighting and its high costs. The report pointed to rising military operation expenses, with the deaths of over 1,138 soldiers and approximately 11,730 others injured. Additionally, the long-lasting war has impacted soldiers' family lives. It is also noted that just one month of reserve duty costs the army around 2.1 billion shekels, equivalent to purchasing seven F-35 fighter jets or 70 Merkava tanks. There are concerns that ongoing pressure could lead to the loss of experienced personnel from service.
