Israel and Hamas were unable to reach an agreement to extend their fragile truce, collapsing a two-month-old cease-fire and throwing the Gaza Strip back into violence. Efforts to revive the cease-fire by Arab powers have so far proven fruitless. After 18 months of regional turmoil, what comes next for Gaza and the broader Middle East? Join the Middle East Institute for a discussion with experts on the breakdown of the cease-fire; the Israeli government’s potential end-goals, calculations, and domestic pressures; US priorities in the region; the threats the renewed war in Gaza and escalations in the West Bank pose to the internal situations of some long-time Arab partners of the United States; as well as Arab countries' influence and ability to change dynamics on the ground.
