"Gaza War Wounded: Coping with Epileptic Seizures"

TL;DR
Hospitals are observing an increase in cases of soldiers with head injuries developing epileptic symptoms, with at least seven soldiers injured in the Gaza war suffering seizures as a result. Dr. Felix Benninger from Beilinson Hospital warns that the difficulty may shift towards managing seizures rather than the initial injury, and emphasizes the potential long-term impact on soldiers' mental health. The IDF lacks official data on the subject, but experts urge vigilance as symptoms of epilepsy may manifest later on, and trauma injuries are a significant factor in the appearance of epilepsy among young adults.
