Israel

Israel is a secondary location within The Suffering. The country had about 94% of the population surviving The Plague, with 5% dying to the plague and only 1% to other incidents. This has been mostly explained due to Israel's wall border against all of its neighbors.

Apocalypse
Israel was on the first nations to respond to the virus outbreak. In February 2021, they managed to close all airports and borders except for one tunnel in Jerusalem for Palestinians/Israelis to enter through.

During outbreaks in the Middle East, Israel and Palestine made an agreement for Gaza Strip to cede to Israel for Palestine's population to claim asylum within the nation. However, a week after this agreement, an Outbreak occurred in Jerusalem that prevented any more access into the nation. Only 5% of Israelis and almost 50% of Palestine's population died in the outbreak. This outbreak was the first confirmed outbreak of 'running zombies' and also the reason due to high % of Palestinians dying.

Both nations attempted to secure one another's safety and eventually about 40-45% of Palestine's population managed to safely make it to Israel. Due to the disbeliefs between each other's citizens, Palestinians and Israelis somehow managed to live amongst each other until agreeing to liberate West Bank in 2024. Israel later helped the Palestinians build a wall in 2025 to prevent a horde of Middle Eastern undead from re-taking West Bank. In mid 2025, Palestine was fully liberated and the old borders were put back into use, except for Gaza Strip as promised.
