The latest developments in the Middle East conflict cover various important aspects that affect regional stability. One of the main issues is tension between Israel and Palestine, which is increasingly increasing with rocket attacks from Gaza and military retaliation from Israel. In August 2023, Israel launched a major operation in the Gaza Strip, resulting in thousands of refugees and increasing civilian casualties. The hospital grounds were also overwhelmed by the number of patients due to the attack, attracting international attention and sparking protests around the world. Meanwhile, in Syria, the civil war that has lasted more than a decade is showing new symptoms with the return of extremist groups. ISIS, despite losing areas of control, is active again with sporadic attacks in the east. Russian and Iranian support for Bashar al-Assad’s government continues to complicate the situation, making any attempts at peace increasingly difficult to achieve. Peace talks in Geneva are also stuck in deadlock, with the parties involved finding it difficult to reach an agreement that satisfies all parties. Lebanon is also not free from tension. The presence of Iran-backed Hezbollah and citizen dissatisfaction with economic conditions have added to uncertainty. Massive demonstrations took place, demanding the resignation of the government in the midst of a financial crisis that was suffering for the people. This situation has the potential to trigger confrontation between pro-Hezbollah groups and anti-government movements, resulting in the risk of open conflict in an already weak state. Türkiye, on the other hand, is increasing its involvement in the region. Ankara is strengthening its position in northern Syria, with the target of limiting the influence of Kurds who it views as a threat. Türkiye’s foreign policy also includes strengthening relations with Gulf countries, although relations with Saudi Arabia were strained due to the murder of Jamal Khashoggi. The Yemeni conflict, which has been ongoing since 2014, continues with a grave humanitarian situation. The Saudi-led coalition and Houthi rebels remain engaged in fighting, with numerous reports of human rights abuses. UN-brokered peace plans are often hampered by distrust between parties. Developments in international relations also influence dynamics in the Middle East, especially with reconciliation between Saudi and Iran. The two began dialogue, which is expected to reduce regional tensions. However, this shift still needs time to influence the situation on the ground. In order to face existing challenges, countries in the region need to formulate more adaptive and collaborative foreign policies. An emphasis on diplomacy and dialogue between countries is key to achieving long-term stability in the Middle East. By involving all stakeholders in the negotiation process, it is hoped that a new spirit for peace and reconciliation can emerge amidst the existing chaos.
