From Miss Israel to serving in the IDF. What 25-year-old Noa Kogba looks like today and why she is being threatened online

Noa Kogba, a 25-year-old model who served in the IDF for almost six months, now lives in the United States and is on a special mission there. The girl, who won a beauty pageant in 2021 and became Miss Israel, is now using media to promote the idea of helping her homeland in the war against Hamas terrorists.

However, far from home, she has faced aggression and threats from pro-Palestinian residents of the United States. OBOZ.UA decided to tell about her life and show new photos.

The winner of the prestigious beauty pageant served in the IDF as a military paramedic course commander before the active phase of the Israeli-Palestinian war began in 2023. She dreamed of becoming a pediatrician, but was forced to put on her uniform again.

The first footage from the service appeared on her profile last November, when the star called on the world to help Israel. The beauty celebrated her 25th birthday in the middle of a field, helping the wounded.

She was a paramedic, saving the lives of soldiers and risking her own. Sometimes the model shared her thoughts about unforeseen situations on the battlefield, how she lives without a shower and amenities, and about taking care of herself in war.

Eventually, in February 2024, the Israeli star was dismissed from the service. Apparently, she was found another job, participating in an information campaign in favor of the country in the United States. There, the former paramedic attends pro-Palestinian rallies and defends her position.

Once such an encounter ended very unpleasantly. In New York, she was attacked by passers-by, and in San Francisco, she was called "Miss Genocide" and had her stairs doused with red paint. It's not hard to guess that she is often insulted, criticized, and threatened for her pro-Israel activities online.

However, this does not frighten Miss Israel, so she continues to share her successes with almost 50 thousand subscribers.
