Who Are The Netzah Yehuda, Israeli Army Unit Facing US Sanctions, Leaving Netanyahu Fuming?

“If anyone thinks they can impose sanctions on a unit in the IDF, I will fight it with all my might,” Prime Minister Netanyahu said.

Although US officials have chosen not to specify the unit targeted for sanctions, Israeli leaders and local media have identified it as Netzah Yehuda. This infantry battalion was established around twenty-five years ago “to integrate ultra-Orthodox men into the military.”

The military said, "Following publications about sanctions against the battalion, the IDF is unaware of the issue."
