'We're Not the Same People Anymore': IDF Soldiers Reveal What No Israeli Wants to Hear About Months of Fighting in Gaza
Sent into #Gaza straight from high school, five young #Israel conscripts describe the brutal, exhausting reality of the war with #Hamas β a world of despair, rage and crippling fear, with no end in sight

"Soldiers interviewed are handpicked by commanders and #IDF spokespersons and thoroughly briefed on what they can and cannot say. And so, reporters return with the same clichΓ©s: "This is a generation of lions," they declare. "Morale is sky-high."
But active-duty army soldiers who spoke to Haaretz in recent months paint a very different picture...
They describe mounting exhaustion, severe physical and psychological strain, and a constant fear that they'll be the next to have their names released as fallen."
