Abstract

The "Al-Aqsa Storm" represents the most extensive, significant, and impactful operation by Palestinian groups against the Zionist Regime in the past 75 years. This operation has transformed not only the security equations in the Levant region but also the security and political architecture of the West Asia area. Accordingly, this article employs a descriptive-analytical method, utilizing library and documentary sources, to address the question: What consequences has the Al-Aqsa Storm operation had on the national security of the Zionist Regime ?
The hypothesis posits that the operations conducted by Palestinian groups on October 7, 2023, have had negative repercussions for the national security of the Zionist Regime across military, political, social, and economic dimensions. The findings indicate that the October 7 operation has not only had internal and regional consequences for the Zionist Regime but has also threatened its national security on the international stage. Factors such as the ineffectiveness of the Zionist Regime's intelligence apparatus, the failure to realize its military doctrine, internal challenges, economic difficulties, and the impacts on foreign policy following the Al-Aqsa Storm operation have all affected various aspects of the Zionist Regime's national security. This insecurity is likely to create fundamental and long-term challenges for the regime in the future.
