Religious Zionist rabbis seek to expand assistance for religious soldiers, formulate joint position in dealings with IDF on mixed-gender service
Assessment
A bloc of Religious Zionist rabbis is organizing to push back against mixed-gender service in the IDF, aiming to present a unified front in negotiations with the military. The move signals growing institutional pressure from within the religious community on a policy that has long been a flashpoint. The outcome could affect both military readiness and coalition stability.
