According to the English section of webangah News Agency, citing Mehr News Agency and Al-Manar, the Hebrew newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth admitted in a report on a session of the Israeli Knesset’s Security and Foreign Affairs Committee that thousands of Israeli soldiers have sustained brain injuries.
The report states that medical services for these soldiers have decreased since the cessation of hostilities in Gaza.
According to this report, seven out of every ten Israeli soldiers suffer from brain injuries, yet CT scans fail to detect these damages. Ninety-four percent of these injuries resulted from blast waves.
The report also notes that 400 Israeli soldiers have yet to receive any medical treatment. This situation highlights the depth of the medical crisis within the occupied territories.
