The account has amassed a collection of pictures showing more than 2,000 different young Israeli women.

All seemingly in their early 20s or late teens, snaps show the girls posing in their uniforms – often with some pretty heavy weaponry – alongside photos of them in bikinis.

Military service is compulsory for all Jewish Israeli citizens who are physically and mentally fit.

All are required to do their national service at the age of 18 – including girls, who must serve a minimum of two years in the armed forces.

This explains what might seem like an unusually high number of young, beautiful women who would seem to have chosen a career in the military.

Israeli girls are deployed to active, frontline roles during the same years their English counterparts might be attending university or getting their first jobs.
