(Ynet News) Avi Issacharoff - Hamas, seeking regional escalation to distract the IDF, may aim to sabotage ceasefire talks in hopes of sparking the broader conflict it has been unable to ignite since the war began. This has been Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar's goal since Oct. 7, but his attempts to trigger a regional war have so far failed. Neither Hizbullah nor Iran has a genuine interest in a full-scale regional war, despite recent high-profile targeted killings. While Sinwar was willing to sacrifice Gaza for his ambitions, Iran's leaders are unlikely to risk their country's economy for revenge. Iran could see its oil industry damaged and its nuclear program become a primary target. Similarly, Hizbullah leader Hassan Nasrallah knows that initiating a major war with Israel would come at a steep price. The writer, a veteran Israeli journalist focusing on Palestinian affairs, is one of the creators of the TV series "Fauda." 2024-08-18 00:00:00Full Article
