On July 27, 2021, an agreement was reached on the defense budget for 2022, including the postponement until 2025 of the measure to shorten men’s compulsory military service to 30 months. This recent decision, which overrides the decision of July 2020 to shorten the compulsory service period, reflects the position of the IDF Chief of Staff, who since assuming his post in January 2019 has opposed shortening the period of compulsory service, given the framework of his proposed Tnufa (“Momentum”) multi-year plan, which the government has yet to approve.
