security risks
The Hamas-Israel war has created a volatile security environment. Discrete triggers for major escalation include crossing of political or military redlines, mass casualty events, or unilateral revisions to the rules of engagement by parties to the conflict.
Vehicular, stabbing, shooting, and bombing attack risks have increased since the start of the war. While terror risks are highest in East Jerusalem and the West Bank, attacks do occur within Israel’s pre-1967 borders. Gaza-based militant groups launch occasional rocket attacks into southern Israel. Hezbollah conducts frequent drone and missile attacks against northern Israel. Iran-aligned militant groups launch occasional drone attacks against Israeli cities. Mass demonstrations, which may turn violent, recur within Israel’s major cities.
