Same reason that holds true for every army in every war in history. The majority of the lower ranks who will be doing the majority of the fighting are young men. So because they are in the middle of the fighting and there are simply more of them, obviously they will be the brunt of the casualties.

Soldiers tend to be young. Every Israeli is expected to do a 2-year stint in the army after high school. The average age of a person graduating from high school is 17/18.

Because Israel has forced conscription. You die younger because you get forced into the military at a young age.
