Israeli media highlights drastic collapse in the morale of Israeli soldiers participating in the war on Gaza. Former hostage stressed that the Israeli government’s prioritize destroying Hamas and not saving the hostages.

Israeli Channel 13 news military affairs correspondent Or Heller spoke about a paratrooper soldier who was on a break from active duty in Gaza at a vacation area in Ashkelon woke up from a nightmare and opened fire at the wall of his room where he was sleeping with his fellow soldiers. A number of soldiers were lightly injured from shrapnel in the incident, which occurred last week.

Former Israeli Home Front Command Dedy Simhi said that the officers bear a great responsibility, and they must organize therapy to relieve the soldiers’ tension and address what they faced, pointing out that the paratroopers’ officers are young men and their age is around 22 years.

Israeli media also highlighted a soldier who refused to serve in the Israeli army, declaring his refusal to “participate in this criminal war on Gaza.”

Hagar Brodutch who was released with her three kids as part of the cease-fire and hostage exchange agreement between Israel and the militant group said that the Israeli army “has been bombing us since the ninth of October,” stressing that the first goal of the Israeli government is to defeat “Hamas,” then return the hostages.
