Arab States Watch Israel's Election With Hope, But Little Expectation

Summarized from Haaretz English by baba

English · 1 newsroom

Arab states are watching Israel's election with hope but few illusions, as the expulsion of Palestinian families from Hebron fuels fears of wider displacement. The operation is seen by some as a copy of the "Gaza Doctrine" applied to the West Bank. While Gabi Eisenkot could potentially facilitate diplomacy, his security views offer little reason to expect a change in Israel's use of force.
