As Israel prepares to receive hostages held in Gaza for over a year, hospitals and health officials are on high alert. Isolated areas have been set up to provide medical care and rehabilitation for the returning captives, who may be suffering from malnutrition and other health issues after their prolonged captivity. With concerns about their physical and mental well-being, authorities are working to ensure a safe and supportive environment for their recovery, using expert medical assistance and psychological support to aid in their rehabilitation process, including treatment for potential post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other mental health concerns.
