Israeli soldiers who served in Gaza are grappling with deep psychological trauma, with many suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder after returning from the frontlines. Veterans have set up camp outside the Israeli parliament, demanding better recognition and support for their mental health struggles, as the number of requests for help has surged far beyond previous conflicts. Families of affected soldiers, including those who lost loved ones to suicide, are joining the call for improved care and acknowledgment of what they describe as 'invisible wounds.' Experts warn that the consequences of untreated trauma extend beyond suicide, impacting families and communities, and urge that psychological injuries be treated with the same seriousness as physical ones. The movement has gained enough momentum to prompt parliamentary hearings, as veterans share their stories and push for systemic change.
