A group of female Israeli soldiers have been disciplined by commanders after a series of raunchy photographs of themselves posing in their underwear and military helmets began circulating on Facebook.

The revealing insight into army life went down well initially, garnering multiple ‘likes’ from members of the social network but the Israeli Defence Force itself took a dimmer view.

In a statement the IDF said: “The picture in question represents behaviour unbecoming IDF soldiers. The commanding officers disciplined the soldiers as they saw fitting.”

Commanding officers have said that the women involved have each been on the receiving end of an ‘educational lecture’ and pointed out that they had yet to join their units when the images were taken.

None of those involved will be expelled from the Army.
