This is Israel’s worst war in half a century in terms of casualties and its most prolonged since the conflict in 1948-49 which the country calls its War of Independence. Israel’s generals are calling 2024 a “year of warfare”. That is quite a prediction, given the bloodshed of 2023. They believe it will take many months to dismantle Hamas’s military capabilities. But it is increasingly obvious that even after the fighting ends, the impact of this war will be felt for years on Israel’s military strategy and by extension on its economy. Do you think that Gaza will completely be put under Israel control ?
