'Israeli' army sees 1,000% increase in soldiers seeking help for trauma
The 'Israeli' military's Combat Mental Health Unit has seen a more than 1,000% increase in soldiers seeking treatment for trauma, with the number of requests jumping from 270 per year to approximately 3,000, according to a report by The Jerusalem Post. The unit, led by Lt. Col. Uzi Bechor, provides individualized treatment for trauma-related issues such as post-traumatic stress disorder, depression, and physical symptoms. Bechor attributed the surge in demand not only to the long and intense war but also to a new willingness among soldiers to seek help earlier. The report also highlighted the complex issue of sending traumatized soldiers back to combat and the increased suicide rate among soldiers, linking it to the high-stress conditions they face. According to Hebrew Channel 12, at least 17 'Israeli' soldiers committed suicide so far in 2025, a figure that does not include reservists not on active duty at the time of their death. In 2024, 21 'Israeli' soldiers died by suicide. In 2023, the number is 17.
