Israel-Hezbollah Tension
"The possibility of a large-scale Israeli invasion of Lebanon this summer should be at the top of the new government’s geopolitical risk register." That’s according to Professor Malcolm Chalmers, the Deputy Director-General of the Whitehall think tank, the Royal United Services Institute (RUSI). With the conflict continuing in Gaza and the Houthi attacks on Red Sea shipping continuing, Prof Chalmers believes "we could be entering a period of sustained multi-front warfare in the region, for which neither Israel nor its Western partners will be prepared."
