Psychiatrists are leaving Israel following 7 October: Report

The heads of mental health centres around the country warned last week that "Israel's mental health system is close to complete collapse", according to a report by the Israeli newspaper Haaretz. 

Dozens of psychiatrists working in Israel's public mental health system have left recently for Britain, Haaretz reported. 

Many psychiatrists expect their workload to massively increase, as Israeli society comes to terms with its war on Gaza.
