Israeli newspaper Maariv reported on Monday a sharp increase in casualties resulting from Iranian missile strikes during “Israel’s” recent 12-day war on Iran, in which “Israel” sustained heavy damage from Iranian retaliatory strikes.
Citing data from the Israeli Ministry of Health, the report revealed that approximately 3,345 settlers sustained injuries and received treatment in hospitals throughout the war. Among them, 23 settlers remain in critical condition, while three others succumbed to their injuries during hospitalization.
The war also took a significant psychological toll. The ministry reported a noticeable rise in trauma-related mental health cases, including a surge in both new and returning patients seeking psychological support amid the escalation.
Furthermore, the report stated that 11,070 settlers were evacuated and housed in 97 reception centers across “Israel.” According to Maariv, thousands of others remain in temporary accommodations such as hotels, with no indication of when they might be able to return home.
