Recent history in Afghanistan and Iraq teaches that rebuilding in active conflict zones comes with its share of hazard and futility, but it is a necessity in Gaza and Ukraine despite its uncertainty.

Ankara’s engagement in Gaza may create conditions conducive to de-escalation and a gradual recalibration of Turkish-Israeli relations.

Jane and Jason consider the impact of the hostage release, Gaza's future governance, and the implications of an Iran peace deal as the UN celebrates its 80th anniversary.

Join part one of our discussion with Phil Rosenberg, President of the Board of Deputies of British Jews.

While the current peace proposal for Gaza, authored by Israel and the US, no longer includes displacement of Palestinians to Egypt's Sinai peninsula, Cairo is right to be concerned such an idea is a live consideration.

Israel’s strikes on Hamas leaders in Qatar will almost certainly slow − if not scupper − what little chance remained of a ceasefire in Gaza.

The violence in Suweida has triggered a response from both Israel and the interim Syrian government as local grievances spill into an international confrontation.

Viewing Turkey–Israel dynamics through a zero-sum lens risks fuelling strategic miscalculations and regional instability.

Open warfare has crossed the Middle East, and in its wake came an erosion of the norms of statesmanship and the power of international law to avert conflict. What are the implications for deterrence, diplomacy, and the future of UK, US, and regional strategy?

The 12-day war between Israel and Iran had the potential to enflame the region and stretch into a prolonged conflict, but each party carried strategic concerns that necessarily drove the cessation of open warfare.

Military strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities and Tehran's criticism of the IAEA threaten to undermine the credibility and effectiveness of the Agency's work, with implications for non-proliferation beyond the Iran nuclear file.

Arthur Snell and Jason Pack attempt to untangle the latest: from the Iranian attack on the US airbase in Qatar to Trump’s declaration of forever peace to end what he is cleverly calling the 12 Day War.

Gulf States reacting to the attacks on Iran have been outspoken but not unguarded, as statesmen and diplomats consider the road ahead. The affront is balanced against the existing relationships with Iran and the US - with some regard for how to manage an exodus of refugees in the event of a deeper conflict.

Our experts comment on the US strikes of three Iranian nuclear facilities at Isfahan, Natanz and Fordow.
