Are the Israeli soldiers in Gaza afflicted with "Shigella"?
The continuing battle between israel and Hamas has lasted for two months. Over 1200 Israelis were killed when Hamas fighters unexpectedly invaded israel on october 7. After this, the two became involved in a conflict that hasn't ended. The two sides agreed to a truce at the end of November, but soon after it was lifted, Israeli fighters began dropping bombs on Gaza from their aircraft.
Additionally, a proposal to halt the bombardment of Gaza was made, but it was rejected. The majority of the structures in Gaza have now collapsed into piles of rubble, making the already dire situation worse. people who have been displaced are starving and walking the streets at the same time. In addition to this, there is currently a serious situation affecting the Israeli forces stationed in Gaza. In actuality, the Israeli soldiers stationed there are afflicted with a grave illness known as "Shigella."

It is estimated that the inadequate food and sanitary conditions on the battlefield are contributing to the spread of this disease. Doctors with the Israeli Defense Forces have reportedly told the media that soldiers in Gaza have been telling them about terrible gastrointestinal illnesses. This is recognized as "Shigella."
Following that, the sick soldiers are treated back home after being placed under quarantine. Israeli physicians assert that the food that the Israeli people prepare and supply to the soldiers stationed in Gaza is the primary cause of the disease's spread. This meal may contain hazardous microorganisms, including Shigella. It's also possible that it was transported at a very low temperature, which allowed the bacteria to get to the soldiers who ate it cold without heating it. Doctors are expressing concern that in such a scenario, a soldier may contract diarrhea as a result, and that because of unsanitary conditions, dirt on the battlefield, and inadequate food supplies, the illness may have spread to other soldiers.
