As the world pours over the intricate details of hostage releases, trucks of humanitarian aid, or even dimensions of Hamas' tunnels, we are in serious danger of missing the wood for the trees. The ongoing multi-front Iranian attack on Israel by Hezbollah in the north, Hamas in the centre, and Houthis in the south, has been minimised and rebranded as a Hamas-Israel war. But the actual wood is even wider. The announcement of the India-Middle East-Europe Economic Corridor, or IMEC, just weeks prior was what actually triggered the 7 October attacks. Unsettling the Russia-China-Iran axis sparked th...

Hamas is believed to hold around 100 Israelis in the Gaza Strip. The Palestinian militant group ...
