AKIsraeli threatens to expel 970 pilots over Gaza war protest – Middle East Monitor (2025-04-09)
"Israeli daily Haaretz reported that 'about 970 aircrew members, some in active reserve service, signed the letter opposing the war but not calling for refusal to serve.'
"In recent days, senior Air Force leaders made personal phone calls to reservists who endorsed the message, urging them to retract their support, ... they face dismissal if they refuse to comply..."
"Following the threat, only 25 signatories withdrew their names, while eight others requested to add their signatures.
"The letter’s signatories, including senior Air Force officers and pilots, argue that 'the fighting in Gaza serves political interests, not security ones.'”
