The IDF has reportedly rejected the petition of a Jewish inductee to the army who requested serving in the IDF trackers (gashash) course saying it is for Bedouin only. The soldier, who lives in Yesha, was placed in another unit and told that if he did not agree to the move he would be placed in military prison.
The soldier responded with a letter criticizing the IDF for discriminating against Jewish soldiers. The IDF says it will review its policy on the matter.
