Fake news
AWOL means the person is a soldier who has run away from the army.
The person in question never joined the Israeli army, and therefore the English word “AWOL” is inaccurate. In English the person is a draft resistor, or a draft evader, depending on motive. He is someone who has refused to be conscripted.
THE BRAVE ISRAELI ARMY STRIKES AGAIN.
they are going to get such a protest…
