A recent 12-day war between Israel and Iran marked a major escalation in Middle Eastern geopolitics, with both sides launching direct strikes and testing the limits of modern deterrence. While a ceasefire is currently holding, military and political leaders warn that the truce is fragile and could break down if any party resumes hostilities. Israel's military is preparing for potential multi-front conflicts and has shifted to a more offensive defense strategy, signaling that its campaign against Iran and its proxies is far from over.

The aftermath has created both risks of renewed violence and opportunities for diplomatic engagement, but the region remains on edge.
