The Israeli army has warned its personnel travelling abroad that they risk arrest after one of its soldiers fled Brazil while being investigated for possible war crimes in Gaza, Anadolu Agency reports.
It came in response to human rights organisations tracking soldiers and filing legal cases against them for taking part in the ongoing conflict in the Palestinian enclave, according to Israel’s Haaretz newspaper
The report said the army’s warning was particularly directed at reservists, as active-duty personnel cannot travel abroad without prior approval.
