Some 10,000 reservists from various units in the IDF announced their refusal to report for duty in protest over the government’s plans for judicial reform, joining the 1,000 Air Force who announced their refusal on Friday.
“Changes in the justice system should be made by broad consensus, not by stealth,” Eyal Neve, one of the leaders of “Brothers in Arms,” said at a press conference in Herzliya.
“This is one of the most challenging evenings in our country’s history, but also the most critical. We have about 10,000 soldiers standing behind us tonight saying to the government of Israel – enough,” Neve added.
“We did everything possible to avoid this moment. We pledged to serve the kingdom, not the king. We are determined, we are fighters, we love this country, and we will not give up. We call on you to halt the legislation.”
