The latest conflict in the Middle East has heated up again with a number of incidents shaking the region. In recent weeks, the Gaza region and Israel have experienced increasing tensions, with airstrikes and retaliatory missiles causing casualties on both sides. Local sources reported that the attack was triggered by clashes in the Al-Aqsa mosque area, which is a sensitive place for Muslims and Jews. On the other hand, the conflict in Syria also shows the same symptoms, where fighting between government forces and rebel groups continues. The northern region of Syria, especially in Idlib, is a major concern due to the large number of refugees seeking protection from military attacks. The UN reports that more than one million people have been forced to flee their homes due to ongoing violence in the region. Iran, as one of the main actors in this conflict, continues to provide support to militant groups in the region, which further complicates the situation. Tehran’s foreign policy is considered aggressive, especially in supporting Hezbollah in Lebanon and Shia militias in Iraq. This has caused concern among neighboring countries such as Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, which feel threatened by Iran’s influence. On the diplomatic side, several countries, including the US and European countries, are trying to urge both sides to return to the negotiating table. Many hope that the peace initiatives that have been aggressively voiced by these countries can bring positive change. However, this hope seems to be fading amidst increasing hatred and distrust between the parties involved. Meanwhile, humanitarian conditions in the region remain worrying, with limited access to aid due to the blockade and prolonged conflict. Humanitarian organizations emphasize the importance of unconditional access to provide assistance to those in need, especially children and women who are the most vulnerable victims in this crisis. The space for peaceful solutions is narrowing, and rapidly changing international dynamics add to the complexity of these conflicts. The role of Russia and the US, which have their own strategic interests, is key in determining the direction of the conflict. Both are expected to contribute to stability, but are often caught in competition that complicates efforts to achieve sustainable peace. In the future, the dynamics of conflict in the Middle East need to continue to be monitored, considering that its impact is not only felt regionally, but also throughout the world. The International Prosecutor General (ICC) has begun investigating alleged human rights violations occurring in the region, signaling that justice could be the basis for a long-term solution. World leaders must take proactive steps to prevent further escalation and seek holistic solutions for the well-being of all citizens in the Middle East.
