יוסי פוקס: לקבע כעת שירות חובה של 32 חודשים, את ה-36 לדון אחרי הבחירות

הערכה

Government Secretary Yossi Fuchs is proposing a phased approach to extending mandatory military service, first locking in 32 months now and deferring the debate on 36 months until after the elections. This signals a political calculation to avoid a contentious decision before the vote, while acknowledging the military's stated need for longer service. The gap between the army's request and the government's offer suggests a brewing tension between security requirements and electoral timing.
