flag A Singaporean father and son, who volunteered with Israel’s Sar-El programme in 2016 performing non-combat tasks, were questioned in 2025 after a 2018 or 2019 blog post resurfaced. flag Authorities confirmed their 2016 activities did not violate Singapore law as they involved no combat roles, weapons, or military allegiance. flag However, the Ministry of Home Affairs and Ministry of Defence warned that current Sar-El activities, including working alongside IDF soldiers on military bases, are now unacceptable under Singapore law and could lead to legal action if deemed prejudicial to national security. flag The blog post was removed after ISD engagement, and both men are no longer involved with Sar-El.
