Israeli reservists on training drill in Golan Heights May 2024
Middle East Monitor – March 2, 2025
The Israeli government approved a bill allowing the military to call up an additional 400,000 reserve soldiers amid delays in the start of negotiations for the second phase of a Gaza ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement, Anadolu news agency reported.
Israeli Channel 14 said the decision came amid fears of renewed fighting in the Gaza Strip.
Under the new decision, the Israeli occupation army will be able to mobilize up to 400,000 reserve soldiers by 29 May, representing an increase of 80,000 soldiers compared to the previous order which approved a maximum mobilization of 320,000 reserve soldiers, the broadcaster said.
“This decision comes amid ongoing challenges in recruiting human resources for reserve duty,” the channel said.
The first six-week phase of the ceasefire agreement, which took effect on 19 January, officially ended at midnight on Saturday. However, Israel has not agreed to move forward to the second phase of the deal to bring an end to the war in Gaza.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu had sought to extend the initial exchange phase to secure the release of as many Israeli captives as possible without offering anything in return or fulfilling the military and humanitarian obligations of the agreement.
The Palestinian resistance group Hamas has refused to proceed under these conditions, insisting that Israel abide by the terms of the ceasefire and immediately start negotiations for the second phase, which includes a full Israeli withdrawal from Gaza and a complete halt to the war.
The ceasefire agreement has halted Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza, which has killed more than 48,380 victims, mostly women and children, and left the enclave in ruins.
Last November, the International Criminal Court issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and his former Defense Minister Yoav Gallant for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza.
Israel also faces a genocide case at the International Court of Justice for its war on the enclave.

“…400,000 reserve soldiers…” – perverts and murders every single one of them.
Why would any sane Jew stay in Israel – and risk being drafted into the meat grinder? For one thing, you could just leave for a couple of years, go to Miami or Paris or NYC and live it up and wait and see what happens. It’s not like most atheistic Jews actually believe the Torah or follow it anyways, you simply can not be a devout Torah Jew and engage in animal sex or fudge packing, god forbids it, yet in Tel Aviv it is common.
The whole Torah thing is a joke since Abraham never existed, long before Abraham was Brahma who married his Sister Saraswati, just as the Torah fable says A-Brahma married his Sister Sara. C’mon on people, some Rabbi perv stole the Hindu story and rewrote it for his tribe. So if the father of Israel was made up bullshit, why would you want to risk your life for that f-ckwad Nutjobyahoo?
They are getting away with the extermination and land clearance operations in Gaza but they need more killers on the ground for the exterminations and land clearances scheduled for the West Bank and Syria.
