What is Needed to End the Gaza War?
Join the Middle East Institute on Wednesday, July 16, at 10:00 a.m. EDT, for an on-the-record webinar exploring the prospects for an end to the war in Gaza.
President Donald Trump is pressing for a cease-fire as the Gaza conflict enters its 22nd month. Yet despite his calls to end the bloodshed, multiple obstacles still stand in the way of a deal between Hamas and Israel. Could the broader regional reverberations from last month’s Israel-Iran war and US actions during that campaign help break the deadlock on Gaza? How can key regional and international actors help address the dire humanitarian situation in Gaza?
Our panel of experts will examine potential endgame scenarios in Gaza; assess the possibility for resolving the wider Israeli-Palestinian conflict, including what role the US and its regional partners could play in this process; as well as analyze how the ongoing tectonic shifts across the Middle East may reshape the path to peace between Israelis and Palestinians.
