A verified fundraising campaign is seeking donations to provide therapy for Israeli soldiers who have been fighting for over 300 days. The campaign states that soldiers are carrying trauma that can destroy lives and families, and that one soldier from a neighboring unit took his own life after not receiving the help he needed. It says the therapists and location are ready, but funding is lacking.
A fundraising campaign titled "Please Heal Our Chayalim" is seeking donations to provide mental health therapy for Israeli soldiers who have served over 300 days in the ongoing war. The verified, tax-deductible campaign describes soldiers carrying trauma from scenes including the murder of a pregnant mother on her way to give birth, and reports that a soldier from a neighboring unit died by suicide after failing to receive adequate help. The campaign states that therapists and a location are ready, but funding still needed. Mental health among frontline troops has been a growing concern as the war extends into its 11th month, though the campaign operates outside official military channels. The extent of military-provided mental health support during the prolonged conflict remains unclear from these reports.
