Israel Defense Forces: British Nationals Abroad
- Question
-
To ask His Majesty's Government how many British or dual British nationals are currently serving in the Israel Defence Forces.
- Answer
-
We are aware of reports of UK citizens travelling to fight for the Israel Defence Force (IDF), but the Government does not estimate the numbers of those who have done so.
The UK recognises the right of British nationals with more than one nationality to serve in the legitimately recognised armed forces of their additional nationalities.
