"Itzik was an amazing guy," his sister praised. "He graduated from an art school in Jerusalem, an amazing painter who did exhibitions. He wrote a book at the age of 18, a genius guy." "He went to study medicine after the army, but the post-trauma chased him and they did not treat him, he wanted treatment as part of the fighters," says Sigalit, who is angry with the rehabilitation department: "You would give him treatment, you could rehabilitate him. "You fight the fighters she sends. I lost the most precious of all, he is my only brother."



Chen's sister also told about the family's long struggle in the rehabilitation department for her brother. "Itzik fought for over twenty years, he could not function, he was alive," said Sigalit. "Something is wrong with the system. Suddenly they fought us, they recruited all their guns. You see how the system closes, the doctors, the judges, the prosecution, we are a small screw. A mechanism that connects like a criminal organization against us."

This is exactly what we shout all the time: "There are IDF disabled people who have been waiting for recognition of their disability for years, fall between the cracks in passing time and do not receive proper treatment."



The Ministry of Defense said it was "participating in the family's deep sorrow and examining the circumstances of the incident".

The response further stated: "Preliminary investigation indicates that the background is in fact not related to post-trauma but to another illness that cannot be specified for reasons of medical confidentiality."
