Two Israeli soldiers take own lives in occupied territories

Two Israeli soldiers stationed at a military barracks in the southern part of the occupied territories and an intelligence unit have separately committed suicide, Israeli and Palestinian media outlets say.

One of the soldiers was a member of Unit 8200, which is an Israeli spy service unit responsible for collecting signal intelligence (SIGINT) and code decryption. He killed himself on Sunday morning, Arabic-language Ma’an news agency reported.

The other one topped himself at Tsalim military base in the desert Negev region in the afternoon.
