Igor Tudoran, a 27-year-old reservist, lost his right leg in the Gaza war, becoming one of the many wounded Israeli fighters.
The war has resulted in a large number of casualties, raising concerns about the country’s preparedness to address their needs.
“Already within the tank, I understood from the condition of my leg that I would lose it. But the question was how much of it will I lose,” Tudoran said. (Trending: Trump Releases Must-See TV Ad Ahead of 2024)
The conflict has also inflicted unprecedented suffering on Palestinians in Gaza.
Despite the support for the war’s objectives, the plight of the wounded is often overshadowed by the focus on fallen soldiers.
The exceptionally high number of wounded in this war will serve as a lasting reminder of the conflict.
Efforts are being made to assist the wounded, but there are concerns about the severity of the situation and the long-term impact on the lives of those injured.
“I have never seen a scope like this and an intensity like this,” said Edan Kleiman of the Disabled Veterans Organization.
“We must rehabilitate these people,” he said.
“They add up,” said Yagil Levy.
“There could be a long-term impact if we see a big rate of people with disabilities that Israel must rehabilitate, which can produce economic issues as well as social issues.”
“I’m not ashamed of the wound,” said Ben Hamou.
“I was wounded for the country in a war inside Gaza. I am proud.”
“There are wounded whose lives have been ruined,” said researcher Idit Shafran Gittleman.
“They will have to contend with their wound their entire lives.”
