Saudi Arabia has for the first time opened applications for women to join its military.
Women have until Thursday to apply for positions with the rank of soldier in the provinces of Riyadh, Mecca, al-Qassim and Medina.
The roles do not appear to involve combat, but will instead give women the opportunity to work in security.
A list of 12 requirements says hopefuls must be Saudi citizens, aged between 25 and 35, and have a high-school diploma.
The women and their male guardians - usually a husband, father, brother or son - must also have a place of residence in the same province as the job's location.
