The IDF has recently announced it will no longer categorize models as “active artists”, that provide recognized artists benefits during their military service that regular soldiers don t have access to.
The IDF gives the coveted status and the accompanying benefits - such as less hours in the base, shorter basic training and a permit to fly abroad frequently - to those who enlisted in the military having started successful careers in various artistic fields such as music, sport, dancing and now social media.
