Anyone who has passed through Israel will have been persuaded, at least once, by the widespread fascination of young IDF (Israel Defense Forces) soldiers; but anyone who does not know what we're talking about, can now go and browse the Instagram profile 'Hot israeli army girls': social profile where the young Israeli soldiers send their photos in uniform combined with those that portray them in their spare time, sometimes in bikinis .
The profile in question has reached over 98,000 followers in a short time and is showing the world the beauty of young Israeli girls who - like men - lend service.
For women - who are volunteering for us in October 1999 - compulsory membership requires a duration of 24 months, unlike men who last for months 36.
The percentage of women in the IDF - which counts according to the latest estimates 186.000 and about half a million reservists - is around 34% according to the latest reports.
