Iran-Israel
In Hezbollah-Israel Conflict, Palestine is the Ultimate Casualty
Israel and Hezbollah again returned from the brink of an all-out war against each other. The two pulled back after an exchange of heavy fire this Sunday. The situation raised stark fears for the region getting embroiled in another war, while Gaza continues to be a victim of a live genocide. Regional tensions remain high. The conflict between Hezbollah and Israel is decades old, and it is likely to only escalate in the future. The two began the near-daily strikes and counterstrikes along the Israel-Lebanon border shortly after Israel began its genocide on Gaza. Since their recent mutual onslaught, global and regional actors have become active in containing the situation, and it seems they have succeeded for now. However, it is only a matter of time before these two engage in another escalation against each other.

International Justice System Under Threat Over Genocide Issues
Like almost all modern conflicts, the legal aspects of the Israel-Hamas struggle are the subject of intense debate. This is not a new phenomenon; such debates have occurred in the past. As with previous military operations in Gaza, Israel is arguing that this current campaign is a measure of self-defense. Article 51 of the UN Charter states that the right to self-defense is a fundamental principle of international law. While there are various debates surrounding the nuances of this principle, any state has the right to take defensive measures in the face of armed attacks. Most international lawyers believe that if rockets are fired into civilian areas and disrupt the normal social life of a part of a country, it can be considered an armed attack under international law. Article 51 of the UN Charter supports this view. However, there is ongoing debate about under what specific conditions such self-defense actions are legally justified.
