Haaretz: 18 suicides in Israeli army this year
The Israeli newspaper "Haaretz" reported that a student in a pilot training program committed suicide inside a military base in southern Israel. This incident comes amid an increase in suicide cases among Israeli soldiers. Since the beginning of the year, the government has recorded at least 18 suicides among soldiers, including two female recruits and five reserve personnel in the past month, with possible unreported cases as well. This rise is linked to the psychological challenges faced by soldiers due to the ongoing war and military operations, raising concerns about the military's ability to handle the mental health repercussions for its troops—especially after long periods of service in combat zones.
