Original Note:
This is misleading. Israel has compulsory military service and compulsory reserve duty up to the age of 40 (up to 50 in a national emergency). The majority of Israelis under 40 are reserve military personnel with 26% of eligible reservists having active reserve status. https://www.britannica.com/topic/Israel-Defense-Forces https://www.timesofisrael.com/just-a-quarter-of-all-eligible-reservists-serve-in-the-idf/
