An Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) soldier was found dead at a base in northern Israel, in what the military suspects is another case of suicide. This follows the death of a soldier last week who served in Gaza, as reports highlight a troubling rise in suicides among troops during Israel’s ongoing war in the Gaza Strip. At least 43 soldiers have reportedly taken their own lives since the war began in October 2023. The IDF is accused of attempting to censor these cases, with some soldiers buried quietly, without military honors. Meanwhile, families of troops are demanding answers about the Puma armored vehicles, citing serious safety flaws. The Knesset is set to hold an emergency session as pressure mounts over both the mental health crisis and operational failures.
