Gideon Levy_ How protected are Israelis from Iranian air attacks_

Haaretz columnist Gideon Levy, speaking from Tel Aviv, describes the unprecedented impact of Iranian strikes on Israeli cities, noting the psychological toll of seeking shelter while acknowledging Gaza’s far worse plight. He observes shifting public sentiment—initial euphoria over military successes giving way to anxiety as daily life paralyses, with schools and airports closed. Levy argues the conflict’s longevity hinges on US support and mutual intransigence between Netanyahu and Khamenei, neither willing to concede defeat. While Israel’s strikes may delay Iran’s nuclear programme, Levy warns they could backfire, pushing Tehran toward weaponisation as a regime survival tactic. He stresses the war’s unsustainability but sees no quick resolution, with Netanyahu prioritising ideological goals over civilian welfare.
