The Israeli Ministry of Security has reported that the number of wounded and disabled in the Israeli "army" has reached 78,000 due to the recent war.

The majority of these casualties are reserve soldiers, with over 50% being under the age of thirty.

Notably, 62% suffer from psychological trauma, and 10% are in moderate to critical condition, with 194 soldiers currently hospitalized.

In related news, Israeli newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth highlighted growing concerns within the Israeli army's General Staff over a "severe shortage of manpower."

The army is facing significant pressure on regular soldiers, many of whom are expected to remain on duty for the foreseeable future.

Tens of thousands of IOF reservists seek psychological treatment: Ynet

Late last month, Yedioth Ahronoth reported that tens of thousands of reservists in the Israeli occupation military were increasingly seeking psychological treatment after completing months of military service.

The report highlighted that 170,000 Israeli soldiers have enrolled in a program launched by the Security Ministry about a month and a half ago, noting that the psychological treatment program is witnessing high demand from reservists.

However, the newspaper pointed to a severe shortage of therapists, adding that the so-called "Amit" therapy program, initiated by the Israeli Security Ministry, is struggling to keep up with the growing demand.

In this context, the Friends of Israel Disabled Veterans' website revealed on February 5 that around 10,000 soldiers may be officially recognized as suffering from psychological disabilities, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

The website also reported that more than 6,000 new disabled Israeli soldiers have been added to the organization, stating that a total of 14,700 soldiers and security personnel have been wounded since the start of the Israeli war on Gaza and Lebanon.
