TelAviv -- Unofficial media platforms and widely circulated social-media reports claim that an Israeli army officer named Tomas Adzagauskas, from the Givati Brigade, died by suicide after experiencing a severe nervous breakdown following his participation in military operations in the Gaza Strip.

According to a post attributed to the officer and shared shortly before his death, Adzagauskas wrote:
“I can’t go on anymore. I am lost and devastated. I have committed unforgivable acts, and I can no longer live with them. There is a demon chasing me since October 7… Please forget me.”

No official statements have been issued by the Israeli army to confirm or deny the circulating reports, and no details have been released regarding the circumstances or investigations surrounding the incident.

These accounts come amid increasing reports of psychological distress among soldiers involved in operations inside Gaza, under the pressure of ongoing battles and rising casualties, while Israeli military authorities remain silent about many such cases.
