In a bold move that may impact the ongoing conflict in Gaza, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has maintained his stance against a truce for the past 18 months, primarily to prevent destabilizing his government. However, following recent strikes on Iran and U.S. cooperation in targeting Iran’s nuclear facilities, Netanyahu's political fortune appears to be shifting. Recent polling indicates rising approval ratings for his government, instilling confidence that he might navigate coalition challenges and consider more flexible approaches toward the Gaza conflict. Political analysts like Mitchell Barak suggest that Netanyahu's newfound strength might allow for substantial negotiations to end the war without fearing repercussions for his administration. Despite public optimism, Netanyahu's office reiterates that Hamas must meet specific demands, including surrender and the release of hostages, before any peace agreements can be considered, emphasizing that the responsibility lies with Hamas to cease hostilities.
