The participation if women in some armies in the world is in reality only symbolic. The talk about the role of Zionist women in fighting with the combat units of the enemy in the war of 5 June 1967 was intended more as propaganda than anything real or substantial.

The intention was to achieve adverse psychological effects by saying to Arabs that they were defeated, in 1967, by women.
