Survivors of Nova festival were forcibly hospitalized due to mental distress

Attorney Daniel Raz, in charge of involuntary hospitalization at the Ministry of Justice, said at a hearing in the Knesset's health committee that "quite a few of the party goers in Re'im were forcibly hospitalized" due to mental distress. At a hearing on the national program for resilience and mental health in Israel, Raz admitted: "No. I believed in myself that we would reach the end state. 1,400 shekels per day of hospitalization when we could have prevented it from the beginning." According to the chairman of the committee, lawmaker Yoni Meshariki, of the Religious Zionist party, "The war created an event like no other in mental health, and we are calling on the Ministry of Health to coordinate and bring together all the bodies in Israel dealing with this."
