The Israeli press reported that at least six Israeli soldiers who participated in the clashes in the Gaza Strip and southern Lebanon committed suicide due to psychological problems. This number is estimated to be higher in reality, but the Israeli army refuses to share official data on this issue.
Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper reported that at least six Israeli soldiers who became psychologically deteriorated after serving for long periods in Israel’s attacks in Gaza and Lebanon in recent months committed suicide.
Military experts have reportedly predicted that the true extent of the psychological crisis among Israeli soldiers will become apparent when the Israeli army returns to a “semi-normal life” after the fighting ends.
While thousands of people are still reported dead under the rubble, civilian infrastructure is also being destroyed by targeting hospitals and educational institutions where people take shelter.
