Brigadier General Nitzan Alon, commander of the IDF’s Judea and Samaria division, has distributed a letter to commanders in his division in which he asks them to investigate soldiers who are residents of Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria.
The reason for the request, according to Alon, is a concern that these soldiers may leak information regarding future evacuation of outpost communities. “As commanders we must thoroughly check and characterize the backgrounds of our soldiers,” Alon wrote in the letter, the contents of which were revealed by Israel’s Channel 10 News on Sunday. “We have to interview those soldiers who have the potential to harm national security and give them roles in which they are not exposed to sensitive information.”
In the letter, Alon details two recent cases in which soldiers disrupted the activities of the division. The first case occurred in February, when a soldier in the Givati Brigade received a report on the construction of an illegal outpost in Samaria and decided not to report to the unit that was supposed to evict the residents.
