Female Israeli soldiers are to be banned from serving as high security prison guards after allegations of sex with a Palestinian inmate.
Israeli media say a soldier admitted to physical intimacy with a Palestinian man said to have carried out a deadly attack on Israeli civilians.
The woman is thought to have been on military service which is compulsory for the majority of Israelis.
Women must serve for at least two years and men for 32 months.
The name of the soldier and the inmate serving a life sentence have not been released.
