Day 275 of 599 of מלחמת העצמאות MILḤEMET HAʾAẒMAʾUT (War of Independence)

The teaching study follows the Hebrew diary’s Ministry of Labor attribution. Two hundred and fifty teachers had reportedly been recruited; about ten thousand soldiers needed instruction. Neither figure proves completed courses. Publishing reports describe distribution estimates and multiple unit publications, not verified readership. ¹

Chief rabbis requested women supervisors in women’s camps and voluntary service for married women. The diary records a petition, not an enacted exemption. The proposed parachute commando’s two-hundred-and-fifty to three-hundred-and-fifty scale was a planned force, not trained strength available on August 30. ²

PAL/270 says withdrawal had not occurred by noon August 30 because commanders lacked final government terms. JTA’s August 30 bulletin instead gives a four-p.m.deadline. The difference is explicit in the rulingstudy. The later negotiated September 4 withdrawal is separate. A sniper’s fire on an observer jeep at El Malha on August 30 was reported without injury, not a new fatality. ^{3 4}

This is Day 275 of the 599-day civil-date series: 1948-08-30. The public daytime slot is כ״ה באב ה׳תש״ח 25th 𝑜𝑓 Av, AM 5708, derived by fixed Hebrew-calendar conversion. After local sunset the Hebrew date is כ״ו באב ה׳תש״ח 26th 𝑜𝑓 Av, AM 5708; this civil-day recap does not impose its daytime route on every incident it discusses. ⁵

• Which stages separate recruiting teachers from soldiers completing instruction?
• Why can a missed withdrawal deadline differ from a final refusal?
