On video: the protesters arrested in a protest against the legal revolution (Kirin Sagi)
Pilots from Squadron 69 of the Air Force announced today (Tuesday) that they will present themselves tomorrow for a discussion of fighters in the unit.
"We respond to the call of our commanders," they said.
"We have full confidence in the commanders and will continue to serve the Jewish and democratic State of Israel as long as it is required."
Two days ago, dozens of Air Force pilots announced that they would not show up for training - due to the legal revolution promoted by the government.
37 of the 40 reserve pilots in the squadron known as the "Squadron of the Hammers", which is considered another of the most strategic squadrons in the Air Force that was involved in the attack on the nuclear reactor in Syria in 2007, announced that they will not come to training flights this week due to the legal revolution unless they are called to operational activity.
They also added that instead of these reserve days they will demonstrate in front of the government offices.

Senior reserve officers warned earlier today that apart from the dozens of pilots who have already announced that they will not train in protest against the legal revolution, there are hundreds of pilots who are still debating how to drive.
"If there is a dictatorship here, they will not come to the reserves," said one of the pilots.
The strength of the criticism in the Air Force and the letter from the generals sent to Chief of Staff Herzi Halevi tipped the scales, and therefore, in the coming days, he intends to hold a series of talks with reserve commanders from all commands, troops, arms, and wings. A senior officer in the IDF said that the purpose of the talks is to calm the The spirits, to emphasize that the protests are listened to and not ignored, but also to convey a clear message that there is no place for political protests in the IDF.
