9 months of Israeli occupation of the Gaza Strip have passed without any achievement. On the contrary, the level of crisis in the supply of military equipment and maintenance of troops for Tel Aviv is increasing day by day.

Recently, Israel’s Channel Seven reported that since the beginning of the Gaza war on October 7, the number of disabled members of the Israeli army has exceeded 70 thousand, including 8,663 wounded.

The channel also reported that 35 percent of these soldiers have become mentally ill after October 7 and 21 percent are undergoing treatment for serious physical injuries.

The Ministry of War of the Israeli government said that they are preparing to treat about 20,000 new wounded soldiers by the end of this year.

According to the report of the Israeli television channel Seven, “every month more than a thousand new wounded men and women are being admitted to the hospital for treatment.” 95% of the injured are men. 70 percent of them are reserve troops.

According to Israeli experts, about 40 percent of wounded soldiers who will be hospitalized by the end of 2024 may suffer from various psychological problems, including anxiety, depression, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

It should be noted that in response to continuous Israeli crimes in Palestine, the Palestinian resistance group Hamas launched an operation called “Al-Aqsa Storm” from the Gaza Strip on October 7 last year. Israel shut down everything in Gaza with the support and assistance of some Western countries including the United States to mourn their defeat and started mercilessly bombing the innocent Gazans.

Not only bombardment, sea and land operations have killed 37 thousand 400 Palestinians so far. Another 86,000 Palestinians, including women and children, were injured in Israeli aggression.
