The Israelis do it, too. No, they don't. They stopped doing it in 1950 after they found out that their Arab enemies wounded and tortured their women soldiers to draw out the men soldiers who felt the overwhelming urge to run out into an open-fire zone to rescue the women. Look it up!
Maybe you should be the one to look it up. That was the case in the past, not anymore.
The 2000 Equality amendment to the Military Service law states that "The right of women to serve in any role in the IDF is equal to the right of men."
The Caracal Battalion, for example, is made up of mostly females. Women serve in the full combat capacity on Israels southern borders.
