Arab-Israeli conflict

Levantine territorial dispute

The Arab-Israeli conflict is the long-running dispute between Israel and neighboring Arab states and Palestinian populations over territory, sovereignty, and national identity in the Middle East.

Beginning with Israel's founding in 1948, it has produced multiple wars, ongoing tensions over borders and settlements, and the unresolved question of Palestinian statehood.

The Arab-Israeli conflict has shaped regional politics for decades.
