Low female participation in voluntary enlistment for the National Guard

October 3, 2025

Only one woman from Larnaca has expressed interest in voluntary enlistment in the National Guard. The process is optional, making participation uncertain. There is hope that more women may join in the coming days. The Ministry of Defense views this process as a new initiative that will provide valuable insights for the future. The application deadline is October 24th.
