470 days of indiscriminate airstrikes and bombardments
At last, following 470 days of indiscriminate airstrikes and bombardments, the Israeli regime's aggression against the people of Gaza came to an end. Throughout this period, Israel continued committing war crimes and crimes against humanity, even in the final hours leading up to the ceasefire. Despite its initial objectives, Israel failed abjectly to achieve its goals and suffered significant losses, both on the battlefield and in broader strategic terms.
Furthermore, Israel has faced a deepening erosion of support in global public opinion. The narrative of Israelis as perpetual victims—once a cornerstone of the discourse surrounding the Arab-Israeli conflict—has lost all credibility, with those occupying Palestine now widely regarded as among the most reviled groups on the global stage. In Europe, mounting public discontent has compelled political leaders to reevaluate their steadfast support for Israel, signaling a seismic shift from their previous stance.
Today, the longstanding perception of the Israeli military's invincibility has been shattered altogether, significantly undermining its deterrence capabilities. Moreover, the war has precipitated a marked decline in the willingness of Jewish communities worldwide to immigrate to Israel, further intensifying the regime's demographic crisis. In addition, years of efforts aimed at normalizing relations between Israel and Arab countries have been disrupted, postponed at least for the time being, bringing renewed global attention to the Palestinian cause. The end of the war in Gaza does not indicate a permanent conclusion of military confrontations; rather, it marks the onset of an even more uncertain and challenging future for Israel.
