A precedent-setting decision by the Department of Hostilities at the National Insurance Institute may lead to a flood of claims by victims of anxiety in missile areas such as Sderot and the Gaza Strip. The decision was made regarding a resident of Sderot, a father of three who was not physically injured and treated at a resilience center in Sderot, and was recognized by the Social Security as a victim of hostilities due to a series of missile fire incidents that together caused him post-trauma.

The National Insurance claim, filed through attorneys Gil Ganunian and attorneys Valor Sulmi of the Markman and Tomshin law firm, shows that the victim was exposed to a number of terrorist incidents in separate years, including when he was a missile boy who fell near his home. When he was in the army, he watched on television how his mother, who was wounded by a missile, was taken to an ambulance, and after he finished his military service, missiles fell near him.

Until this recognition of Social Security, in order to qualify for a disability on the basis of post-trauma, it was necessary to associate the post-trauma with a specific and specific security event that caused it. In this case, it is a sequence of cases that together caused post-trauma, similar to the rule of micro-trauma in work-related injuries.

Advocate Sulami explains: "When most citizens hear the term 'victim of hostilities', a person injured by gunfire, stabbing or a suicide bomber immediately comes to mind. No one remembers the hundreds of alarms in the Gaza Strip, Sderot and the south, as long as there are no casualties. We as a society, have become accustomed to the security situation and we unfortunately see it as part of the routine of life. Most of the time, the residents themselves who live in the southern localities are not aware of their rights. It is therefore important to emphasize that the law regards any such alarm as a terrorist incident and recently changed Social Security procedures, where even a person who was injured in a sequence of events - i.e. not directly injured but his routine in a threatened area caused him mental stress - can be recognized as disabled by Social Security. In this case, a medical committee of the National Insurance Institute determined Love 3 mental disability due to post-traumatic stress resulting from exposure to a sequence of security incidents and the garden was given a state. "

The law firm texture the Tomashin said that" unfortunately, we are witnessing more and more cases in which the state denies this way "Or other than the rights of victims of hostilities, and in many cases it is necessary to go to court to protect their rights.
