A recent photo posted on the Israeli military’s international Facebook page is causing a positive cyber-stir, as it aims to express the army’s support for gay soldiers, Yedioth Ahronoth reported Tuesday. The photo, which depicts an Artillery soldier and a Givati soldier holding hands, carries the caption: “It’s Pride Month. Did you know that the IDF treats all of its soldiers equally?” The IDF Spokesperson’s Unit said that the photo was taken as part of Israel’s gay and lesbian community’s Pride Month events, with the full cooperation of the featured couple.
