Israeli soldiers seek psychological aid following Hamas operation
Following the "Aksa Storm" operation by Hamas, about 2,000 Israeli soldiers have sought psychological support.

Hamas' armed wing, the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades, launched the operation against Israel on October 7th. Since then, the Israeli military reports that 2,000 soldiers have received psychological support, with 200 seeking aid following ground operations.
Israeli state television KAN reports that 75-80% of these soldiers have returned to their units. Those who required psychological support experienced situations like gunfire, combat, injuries, witnessing dangerous incidents, or participating in hazardous operations, all affecting their performance.
