Israeli military vows to fire reservists who signed open letter condemning war in Gaza


The Israeli military says it will fire any Air Force reservists that signed an open letter condemning the war in Gaza for serving political interests instead of rescuing the hostages, an army official warned Friday.

Close to 1,000 reservists and retired members of the Air Force signed the letter, which was published as an ad in Israeli newspapers this week.

Most of the signatures came from army veterans, according to the Times of Israel, though 60 reservists are likely to be kicked out of the force.
