Jacqueline Fernandez withdraws plea to travel abroad after court's objection

A major controversy has erupted within the Israeli military as reports emerge of soldiers refusing to report to duty, citing inadequate protection amid relentless missile and rocket attacks. According to reports by KAN News and The Jerusalem Post, troops stationed at vulnerable outposts complained of a severe lack of shelters despite repeated requests to their superiors. Some soldiers described the situation as “gross negligence,” claiming they are left to “put on helmets and pray” when sirens sound, highlighting a stark gap between civilian safety protocols and frontline military conditions. The issue comes as Israel faces intensified strikes from Iran and Iran-backed Hezbollah, with missiles reportedly breaching air defenses and hitting deep inside the country.
