اسرائیل

Although the group’s conventional military capabilities seemingly peaked on October 7, an underperforming army is still an army, so the IDF has little choice but to continue ground operations until it can shift to a counterterrorism-centered strategy.

President Biden’s popularity with the Israeli public gives him leverage, but placing conditions on U.S. aid would likely backfire.

این گروه از مجموعه وسیعی از سلاح‌ها و تاکتیک‌ها برای افزایش اختلال در امنیت دریایی منطقه استفاده می‌کند که به طور گزینشی موجب عدم دسترسی شناورهای اسرائیلی می‌شود که از تنگه عبور می‌کنند و کشتی‌های جنگی آمریکا را هم که برای حمایت از آن‌ها وارد صحنه شوند تهدید می‌کند.

If Washington Post reporters had asked Israeli officials, they would have written a very different story.

Houthi militant activity during the Hamas-Israel war should challenge the perception that the group has a mere “marriage of convenience” with Tehran.

Industry figures are already rerouting some Israeli-linked ships and expressing concern about the increased attacks, but much wider economic repercussions could unfold if Houthi antishipping activity continues indefinitely or escalates.

Laying the groundwork for an eventual Hamas surrender would break the current binary choice between more destructive conflict and an ineffectual ceasefire.

Beijing’s sharply anti-Israel response to the Gaza conflict, prompted by its increased focus on challenging Washington, exposes the limits of its diplomatic reach in the Middle East and the broader tensions in its foreign policy strategy.

As Russia leans into support for Israel’s enemies, officials should look for ways to show Moscow that the threat of escalation goes both ways—including through outreach to Ukraine.
