According to Israeli Yeshiva World News, leaders in Israel's Defense Forces have launched a new awareness program to warn soldiers about what information they reveal on the Internet. The soldiers are cautioned about including their branch of service, any unit details or virtually any information about some of the more classified units in the air force and intelligence.
The report also said that according to Israeli intelligence officials " Facebook is a major resource for terrorists, seeking to gather information on soldiers and IDF units and the fear is soldiers might even unknowingly arrange to meet an Internet companion who in reality is a terrorist."
The report said one soldier who serves in an intelligence unit was sentenced for 19 days in a military brig because he posted on Facebook a photograph of the base at which he is assigned.
