After more than 110 days of war in Gaza, the focus is on a possible escalation of the conflict throughout the region. If the attacks spread throughout the Middle East, the Strip would be just one of the multiple war scenarios that have reappeared since last October 7.
In fact, Israel assured a month ago that it is fighting on seven different fronts, ranging from the northern border with Lebanon - where there are almost daily exchanges with the Hizbullah militias - to the Houthis in Yemen, through armed groups in Iraq and Syria.
