Over 2,000 Britons [and over 3,000 Germans] served for Israel amid Gaza genocide (Declassified UK, 2026-02-11)

>> The information was obtained … via a Freedom of Information request issued to the IDF by lawyer Elad Man from the NGO Hatzlacha.

>> The data outlines the number of people with dual and multiple nationalities who were IDF service members as of March 2025.

>> The largest cohorts come from the US, Russia, Ukraine, France, and Germany. [see attachment]

>> “The UK has clear duties to prevent genocide and avoid assisting unlawful military action.

>> “Where dual nationals have served in units implicated in atrocities, the authorities must investigate promptly and, where the evidence meets the threshold, pursue arrest and prosecution like any other serious crime”.

Why does the title arbitrarily pick out the top 4 and 6, respectively?

[–] unmagical@lemmy.ml 1 points 23 hours ago

The article sourced (a UK focused publication) only mentioned Britons in the title, likely because they focus on the UK.

As to Germany? One can only assume why OP injected that.

@adachika192 There's a number I've been waiting to see! Over a thousand people from #Canada fought for Israel.

Leave the country to fight for the Islamic State and you're not welcomed back. But leave to fight for the Jewish state... Shrugs. It shouldn't be treated differently.
