The Middle East is witnessing a dangerous escalation in political and military crises, as events between the aggression of the Israeli occupation over the Palestinians are intertwined, and regional tension is escalating, its multiple parties between the Houthis in Yemen, Israel and Iran, and Lebanon and Syria are still in the Israeli fire, supported by a cover from the United States.
US President Donald Trump returns to the spotlight with exciting positions on Iranian nuclear negotiations, as he seeks to reformulate relations with Tehran within a commercial and economic framework, which raises questions about the impact of these moves on the regional balance of power.
In the face of this growing escalation, which places the region on a rolling edge towards more conflicts, Western experts told Al -Jazeera Net that Israel remains the source of crises in the region, and from them the escalation expands to include different areas, and it will remain so as long as the international community abandons its humanitarian and legal role in reducing occupation crimes and violations.
The Palestinian issue
The Israeli escalation continues against the Palestinians under the policies of the Benjamin Netanyahu government, which revealed at the beginning of the week to leaks of plans to completely occupy the Gaza Strip, with the support of the United States, which provides a political cover for Israeli practices, according to experts.
The head of the “Shin Fein” party in Northern Ireland, Diklan Kerney, described what is happening in Palestine “as genocide and” racist separation system “, calling on the international community to impose comprehensive sanctions and prohibit arms sales to Israel.
In an interview with Al -Jazeera Net, Kirney stressed that Western powers, such as the United States, Britain and Germany, are responsible for abandoning these violations, which are a flagrant violation of international laws and human rights.
In front of this Israeli policy, Russian political writer and analyst Andre Onticov went on to “uses the escalation as a political tool for his right -wing government’s extremist government in power, especially in light of his internal crises.”
Anticov indicated that the government of Israel depends on the continuous escalation, which places the entire region in front of the threat of conflict exploding in a comprehensive manner.
The former Russian diplomat and political analyst Viacsesslav Matuzov goes further, and sees that the region’s escalation is a continuation of the so -called “deal of the century” that US President Donald Trump spoke about in his first term (2017-2020), as part of American and Israeli policy in the region.
In statements to Al -Jazeera Net, Matuzov said that this deal means the dominance of Israel over the whole Gaza Strip and the annexation of the West Bank, as well as controlling the Syrian Golan Heights and that Jerusalem becomes the eternal capital of Israel.
New fronts
In recent days, in a major military development, a new front has emerged in the regional conflict represented in the escalation of the Houthis against Israel, including targeting vital sites such as the Israeli Ben Gurion Airport.
On these moves, the former Russian diplomat says it is a reaction to Israeli policies towards the Palestinians, stressing that the Houthis are not just an Iranian tool, but rather move based on popular anger and provocative Israeli policies.
Although Iran is a major supporter of the Houthis, Matosov made it clear that Tehran does not encourage the Houthis directly against Israel, noting that the recent escalation comes as part of multiple reactions to the attacks of the Israeli occupation, and not as a result of direct directives from Iran.
In light of the increasing escalation during the past days, and after the injury of Ben Gurion Airport, the Houthis threatened to close the airspace of Israel, which is prepared by the French researcher and journalist Pierre Lewis as a “new front” in the region’s struggles.
In an interview with Al -Jazeera Net, Lewis explained that this front can be called the “Yemeni Front”, as the Houthis have strengthened their position in Yemen, and their influence has become increasing day by day after their operations against the commercial navigation in the Red Sea, which affects the upcoming American plans.
Iranian nuclear
The regional scene is complicated with the return of the Iranian nuclear program negotiations file to the interface; Trump gave these negotiations a new and ground breath that can be built again after his withdrawal from the agreement during his first presidential term, after his predecessor Barack Obama approved it in 2015, but in recent days he stated otherwise as if he was putting more obstacles to these negotiations.
According to the French researcher, the United States is seeking to find a formula to revive the nuclear agreement again, while making sure that regional tensions – such as Houthi escalation – do not affect these negotiations.
As for the change of Trump’s position on Iranian -American negotiations, he wants to return out of trade relations with Iran, with a reference to the rift that Trump wants to make between his directions as a man of deals and Israeli policy towards Tehran, according to Louis.
On the other hand, Iran benefits from its location as an influential regional party, especially in light of the increasing pressure on Israel due to conflicts with Tehran’s regional allies. Some believe that the Trump administration seeks to avoid any direct conflict with Iran, focusing on finding solutions that guarantee its political and economic interests, according to Matuzov.
Functions on the area
Analysts note that the Israeli escalation also includes repeated strikes against Syria, and the expansion of the military clashes in Gaza. The Russian writer Unticov saw that Tel Aviv is working to exploit the internal pressures to enhance her grip internally by fabricating external crises.
Therefore, Israeli plans, such as the evacuation and occupation of the Gaza Strip, come within the same strategy adopted by the extremist Yemeni government, for more escalation in the region, as described.
French journalist Pierre Lewis indicated that the internal crises of the Israeli government, along with the remarkable escalation on the regional fronts of the conflict, which were not present before, put the Middle East region in front of unprecedented challenges.
Adding that the Houthi escalation against Israel, along with the indirect Iranian support, adds a new layer of complexity on the political scene, while the Israeli occupation continues to seek new facts by force.
As for the head of the “Shin Vin” party, he believes that the current situation warns of serious transformations at the level of the region, in the absence of any real efforts to reduce escalation or find political solutions, and these policies may lead to a comprehensive explosion in the Middle East if the situation is not contained through more effective regional and international interventions.
