The Jewish site 972 reports that Colonel Eyal Qarim of the Military Rabbinate wrote that “prohibitions against immorality” are removed during war.
“Is it permitted [according to Judaism] for a Jewish soldier to rape a gentile woman during wartime?” asks the magazine. The answer is – yes.
The question asked of Rabbi Qarim was, translated from Hebrew:
Is it allowed in our days [sic] for an IDF soldier, for example, to rape girls during a fight, or is such a thing forbidden?
The rabbi answers that it is allowed:
The wars of Israel […] are mitzvah wars, in which they differ from the rest of the wars the nations wage among themselves. …
As in war the prohibition against risking your life is broken for the benefit of others, so are the prohibitions against immorality and of kashrut.
