FPRI Special Briefing: Rising Tensions in Israel

About the Event

After weeks of tension, protests over efforts to evict Palestinians from Sheikh Jarrah have revived violence in Jerusalem. The violence has escalated, leading to thousands of rockets fired at Israel and retaliatory Israeli Air Force airstrikes. What led to this surge in violence? Where is the conflict headed? And what role should the United States play in trying to deescalate the situation? Join FPRI's Aaron Stein and Joshua Krasna as they break down the most recent escalation of the Israel-Palestine conflict.
