Israeli soldiers living with disabilities and PTSD have testified to the Knesset’s State Audit Committee, accusing the government of ignoring their plight, Al Jazeera reports.

Avichai Levy, a soldier with PTSD, lashed out during a discussion on the Defence Ministry’s treatment of post-trauma soldiers from the current assault on Gaza.

“How many Eliran Mizrahis do you need? Why lie to us? My friends have been taken hostage and others are experiencing missiles and shootings all day. All the ministers are ignoring us. They have all turned their backs on us. They are all spitting in our faces. They underestimate our intelligence,” Levy said, according to Israel National News.

Mizrahi was a bulldozer operator who served in Gaza and suffered from PTSD, taking his own life earlier this month.

Haaretz reported that Aviram Atias, a combat soldier and another friend of Mizrahi, said he wakes up screaming at night.

“I thought I’d draw strength here, and I’m leaving here even more crushed… If someone here was bleeding to death, everyone would jump in to help. But that’s what’s actually happening, and we’re all bleeding to death here,” he said.
