On February 28, 2026, Israel and the United States launched a comprehensive military operation aimed at striking the Ayatollah regime in Iran, as well as the country’s military and nuclear infrastructure. Since then, the Lebanese front has also opened up. Although a ceasefire and the start of negotiations between the US and Iran were announced, fighting has continued across the various arenas.
The Institute for National Security Studies (INSS) is engaged around the clock in multidisciplinary research regarding the campaign and its implications. On this page, you can find all the Institute’s publications on the subject, as they were distributed to the general public.
