Recent developments in the conflict in the Middle East show increasing complexity, involving many local and international actors. One of the main points of concern is the situation in Syria, which has been dragging on since 2011. The Syrian civil war is now entering a new phase, with Kurdish forces and the Syrian government seeking to regain control of vital areas, while ISIS is still trying to recover its strength on the sidelines of the conflict. In Iraq, the fight against Iranian influence remains in the spotlight. The Baghdad government is trying to maintain a balance between dealing with the threat of terrorism and relations with Tehran. As can be seen from the frequent attacks on military facilities and the presence of foreign troops, these conflicts are not only local in nature but also affect regional stability. In Lebanon, tensions between Hezbollah and Israel are increasingly heating up. Incidents of cross-border spread of fire have occurred, with each side accusing the other. This situation is reminiscent of the 2006 conflict and raises concerns about the possibility of open war that could disrupt regional stability. Meanwhile, in the Israeli-Palestinian context, prolonged fighting continues, especially after the events in Gaza. Airstrikes, shootings and demonstrations continue, making a peaceful solution seem increasingly remote. Talks under the auspices of various global powers, including the US and the European Union, remain deadlocked. From an economic perspective, this conflict has had a significant impact on oil trade. Global oil prices fluctuate as a result of political tensions, while oil-producing countries try to stabilize their production. Gulf states, which rely heavily on oil revenues, are starting to seek economic diversification to deal with the impact of geopolitical tensions. Moreover, the involvement of Russia and the US in this conflict has become an important component. Russia is increasingly strengthening its presence in Syria, pushing for new agreements involving local factions. At the same time, the US reaffirmed its commitment to Israel and encouraged negotiations to achieve peace. Schools and health facilities in conflict areas are often victims. In Gaza, reports show a series of attacks on civilian infrastructure leading to a humanitarian crisis. International organizations are trying to provide aid, but access is often hampered by tensions and lockdowns. Attention is also drawn to migration issues. Waves of refugees from Syria, Iraq and other countries continue to flow into Europe and beyond, causing complex social and political challenges for receiving countries. Immigration policy has also become a hot topic in various European countries, giving rise to internal conflicts regarding how to deal with this crisis. Not to forget, the role of social media in influencing public opinion about the conflict in the Middle East is very significant. Digital platforms have become a means of disseminating information and propaganda, influencing the way society views conflict and diplomacy-based problem solving. With these evolving dynamics, the future of the Middle East remains uncertain. Reliance on diplomatic negotiations and international intervention will continue to defuse tensions and create more stable conditions, although new challenges may always emerge.
