:Israel (or Isra’il) is the name given by the Zionist regime to a part of the land in southwestern Asia, specifically in the Middle East, after the occupation of Palestinian territories, with the support of Western powers. Israel, which is currently a member of the United Nations, is not recognized by some countries, such as Iran. Benjamin Netanyahu is the current Prime Minister of Israel.Jerusalem, or Al-Quds, serves as the capital of Israel, though the United Nations considers the eastern part of the city as occupied and does not recognize it as the capital. In international forums, Tel Aviv is recognized as the capital of Israel.People In the occupied Palestinian territories now under Israeli control, the majority of the population is Jewish. Over the decades, Jews from various parts of the world have migrated and settled there. According to estimates from 2013 by the Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics, the population in this region is approximately 8 million and 51 thousand people, with 6,045,900 of them being Jews and 1,663,400 being Israeli Arabs.History According to historical sources, on November 29, 1947, the United Nations approved a plan to divide Palestine into two countries, Israel and Palestine, and to administer the city of Jerusalem internationally. This plan was accepted by Israeli leaders but was immediately rejected by the Palestinians and the Arab states.As a result, from November 30, 1947, to May 14, 1948, bloody battles broke out between Palestinian and Jewish militants. Ultimately, on May 14, 1948, with the end of British mandate over Palestine, Israel declared its independence.One day after the declaration of independence, all Arab neighbors simultaneously attacked Israel but suffered a heavy defeat. Since then, a series of military conflicts have occurred between Israeli forces and Arab countries, with the 1948 war, the 1956 war, the Six-Day War of 1967, and the Yom Kippur War of 1973 being the most significant.Israel is a formal member of the United Nations and currently maintains diplomatic relations with over 157 countries. However, 32 UN member countries do not recognize Israel, and some countries, such as Iran, refer to all of Israel as occupied Palestine (in Arabic: “فلسطين المُحْتَلّة”).Political Structure In recent decades, with the support of Western powers, Israel has achieved a high level of development and adopted a parliamentary republic system of government. The regime has a parliamentary system with universal suffrage, in which the president holds a ceremonial role, and the prime minister acts as the head of government and the legislative branch.Nuclear Activities Israel is said to have had a nuclear program since the 1950s, but the Israeli government has neither confirmed nor denied possessing nuclear weapons, adopting a policy of “ambiguity” on the issue. Despite being a member of the International Atomic Energy Agency, Israel has never signed the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons.The Negev Nuclear Research Center, located 10 kilometers from the city of Dimona, is believed to be a major part of Israel’s nuclear program. In 1986, an Israeli nuclear technician leaked secret information and photographs from inside the Dimona reactor and Israel’s nuclear warheads to the British weekly The Sunday Times, thereby providing evidence to support existing speculation about Israel’s nuclear arsenal.According to Jane’s Defence Weekly, Israel is considered the sixth nuclear power in the world, with an estimated 100 to 300 nuclear warheads, putting it on par with the United Kingdom in terms of the number of warheads.Wars Israel has fought numerous wars in recent decades, including the 1948 war, the Suez Crisis (1956), the Six-Day War (1967), the Friction War (1973), the Lebanon War (1982), the 2006 Israel-Hezbollah war, the 2008–2009 Gaza conflict, and numerous ongoing skirmishes with Syria, Lebanon, and Palestinians from 2009 to the present.
