Israel faces civil war risk amid Netanyahu crisis
The Haaretz newspaper reported that a secret CIA report warned that Israel is on the verge of severe crises that could lead to a civil war or political collapse. These threats are linked to increasing political polarization, economic decline, and tensions over mandatory military conscription. The report emphasized that years of conflicts in Gaza, Lebanon, and Iran have deepened internal divisions, especially with the upcoming elections scheduled for October 27. It also highlighted worsening issues such as the economic crisis, rising military spending, mental health struggles among soldiers, and escalating violence in the West Bank. The report pointed out that the crisis is particularly centered around Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is struggling to maintain power and faces corruption charges, amid declining foreign support—particularly from the United States—posing a threat to Israel's unity and stability.
