A Policy-Oriented Think Tank Addressing Foreign Policy and National Security Issues for a Safe Israel

Lebanon

The Jerusalem Institute for Strategy and Security (JISS) provides in-depth analyses on Lebanon, focusing on Hezbollah’s influence and its implications for Israel. Recent publications discuss the expansion of Hezbollah’s operations into Africa, posing threats to Western interests and regional stability. Analysts emphasize the necessity of disrupting Iran’s control in Lebanon to enhance regional security. Additionally, JISS examines Israel’s strategic options in addressing Hezbollah’s presence in southern Lebanon, considering the broader context of Iran’s regional ambitions. These insights are crucial for understanding the evolving dynamics between Israel and Lebanon.
