Kosher status of Israeli Army kitchens increasingly threatened

November 6, 2016: The Arutz 7:

According to Tzav 1, the organization, which works to ensure that religious IDF soldiers are able to maintain a religious lifestyle while in the Israeli army, serious breaches of kosher dietary laws have been reported which are not being addressed. Some of the complaints come from small army outposts at the far reaches of Israel.
"Officials within the organization assess that the growing number of complaints is related to the Army's decision to reduce the number of kashrut inspectors, who verify that kitchens are being managed according to the dictates of Jewish law, as well as to new procedures which make it harder to keep kosher law."
