Hamas wants to wage war on women? Let them die at the hands of the women.
[IsraelTimes] The IDF says it has seen a massive turnout of female conscripts drafting to combat units amid the war in the Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return.

Over the last week, the IDF drafted young women to various combat units where female soldiers can currently serve.

The IDF says it has seen a draft turnout above 100%, and that 12% of women drafting to combat units requested this during the war.

It says that the Border Defense Corps’ light infantry units saw a 116% draft turnout, and the corps’ Combat Intelligence Collection units saw a 133% turnout.

The Artillery Corps saw a 132% draft turnout; the Air Force’s air defense array saw 101%; the Home Front Command’s Search and Rescue units saw 122%; and the Border Police saw 119%.

The numbers mean that more soldiers are showing up for duty than the IDF had initially planned for.

Separately, the IDF says the first two female recruits recently completed screening tests for the Air Force’s elite helicopter-borne search and rescue Unit 669, and will be drafted to the unit later this month.

The pair will then undergo one year and eight months of training, and if they complete it, they will be the first female soldiers in Unit 669.
