Five timely takes in the Hebrew media on the war with Iran
June 16, 2025 | Ahron Shapiro
At a time when Israeli cities are coming under unprecedently large and prolonged ballistic missile and drone attacks from Iran with no end in sight, the need for timely and accurate analysis and commentary is greater than ever.

June 13, 2025 | Alana Schetzer
As AIJAC wrote last week, a UN claim that “Gaza is the hungriest place on earth” is simply false, according to aid agency data… Yemen, Sudan and the Democratic Republic of Congo are the sites of some of the longest and most tragic wars that have ravaged the world in recent decades, impacted the biggest numbers of people and created the most severe humanitarian crises.

Military strikes alone won’t stop the Houthis without direct pressure on Iran
March 20, 2025 | Oved Lobel
If the US Administration’s rhetoric is not simply bluster and does reflect the intent of the Administration to restore freedom of navigation through the Red Sea – including via direct strikes against Iranian assets, a much more devoted interdiction campaign and orchestrating a ground component – there are reasons to hope this operation in Yemen could succeed where previous ones have failed.
