The Impact of the United State, Iran, and Israel Conflict on Palestina Security

The prolonged conflict involving the United States, Iran, and Israel has had a significant impact on the security conditions in Palestine. The geopolitical rivalry among these three actors has turned Palestine into a region characterized by continuous political instability, escalating violence, and a prolonged humanitarian crisis. This study aims to analyze how the dynamics of the relationship between the United States, Iran, and Israel influence security stability in Palestine. The research employs a quantitative approach by measuring several key indicators, including the intensity of military attacks, the level of infrastructure destruction, the number of casualties, and population displacement resulting from the ongoing conflict. The data were collected from various sources, including reports from international organizations, academic journals, scholarly articles, and statistical data related to the Palestinian conflict. The findings of this study indicate that the political, diplomatic, and military support provided by the United States to Israel has contributed to the escalation of conflict in Palestine. Such support has strengthened Israels military capacity to conduct large-scale security operations and military attacks in Gaza and the West Bank. As a result, the number of civilian casualties has increased, public infrastructure has been severely damaged, and the security conditions of Palestinian society have deteriorated. On the other hand, Irans involvement through its support for proxy groups such as Hamas and Hezbollah has further intensified the conflict and prolonged tensions across the Middle East region. The continuous conflict has also triggered a severe humanitarian crisis, increased the number of refugees, and worsened the social and economic conditions of the Palestinian people. This study is expected to provide a more comprehensive understanding of the impact of geopolitical conflicts on Palestinian security and serve as a reference for the formulation of foreign policy and peaceful conflict resolution efforts at the international level.
