Earlier this morning, Israeli media confirmed that the IOF admitted the killing of a reserve officer with the rank of captain in the battles taking place in the southern Gaza Strip, in addition to another soldier who suffered serious injuries.

The occupation army's spokesperson explained - under the permitted to publish clause - that the dead officer was a combat officer in the 363rd Battalion, Harel Brigade (10), who was killed on Tuesday in a battle in the southern Gaza Strip.

Another fighter from the Rotem Battalion, the Givati ​​Brigade, was also seriously affected during the battle in the southern Gaza Strip.

IOF in need of psychotropic medication

The social and environmental correspondent of the Israeli newspaper Maariv, Yuval Bagno, stated on December 17 that a 90% increase in the consumption of psychotropic medication as a result of war trauma has been recorded since October 7 in "Israel". 

He added that the Israeli Public Health Association has seen an influx in requests from Israelis asking for professional help as they develop a borderline addiction to these medications.

Israeli newspaper Haaretz cited the Public Health Services and stated that in October, the number of prescriptions for nerve medications related to psychological disorders and panic treatment increased by 11% compared to the preceding month.

Additionally, Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth mentioned that "direct exposure to attacks has led to a threefold increase in the risk of mental disorders". It stated that after two months of war, "many are experiencing distress or a psychological crisis; some are struggling to return to their routine lives, while others suffer from psychological disorders and continuous pain."
