Female Enlistment in Israel's Border Police at Record High
(Ynet News) Meir Turgeman - 252 female soldiers enlisted in Israel's Border Police earlier this month. The human resources officer of the Border Police, Chief Superintendent Keren Meir, said, "The desire to serve in the Border Police now stands in line with the desire to get into the pilots' course or to be a combat soldier in Karakal." The dramatic rise in demand is linked to the deaths of two female Border Police fighters in separate attacks at Damascus Gate in Jerusalem's Old City.
