The Gaza War and Its Impact on the Middle East

A GIGA Forum is an opportunity for experts to discuss current political, social, and economic matters. They present their research findings on developments in Africa, Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East, highlighting key details – often from a global perspective.

The Hamas massacre of 7 October 2023 marked a turning point in recent Israeli–Palestinian and Israeli–Arab relations. It not only resulted in aerial bombardment and a ground invasion of the Israeli army into the Gaza Strip, but has also impacted the wider Arab and Middle Eastern region and the already difficult relationships many of these countries have with both Israel and the Palestinian people.

Six months after the 7 October attack, this GIGA Forum discusses the regional implications of the Gaza War for Israel’s and Palestine’s immediate neighbours – Egypt, Jordan, Syria, and Lebanon – and influential regional powers such as Saudi Arabia and Iran. Is the Gaza War the beginning of a full-blown regional war, or is there hope for de-escalation and long-term peace in the region?
