Recent polls reveal a complex security and political landscape in Israel amid ongoing tensions related to Gaza. A Maariv survey indicates that approximately 78% of residents in the Gaza Envelope area feel unsafe, with 70% perceiving Israeli deterrence against Gaza as weak or very weak. Additionally, 91% believe there is no effective security policy to eliminate threats, and 63% consider the return of hostages essential to their sense of safety. Around 30% of these residents are planning to leave or remain undecided about staying in the area. Concurrently, a separate poll by N12 News shows that 82% of Israelis support a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, including an agreement to end the war and secure the release of all 50 hostages. This sentiment is echoed by 74% of Israelis who favor ending the conflict in exchange for hostage release, despite Prime Minister Netanyahu's differing stance. Furthermore, a majority of Israelis back a temporary military occupation of Gaza to replace Hamas, with 52% overall and 64% of Jewish Israelis in favor. Opposition to a Palestinian state is also notable, with 64% against its establishment and 53% opposing Palestinian Authority involvement in any future Gaza settlement. On broader security concerns, 76% support additional measures against Iran if it attempts to rebuild its nuclear and missile capabilities, and 66% fear a repeat of the October 7 attack originating from the West Bank. These findings illustrate deep divisions and concerns within Israeli society regarding security, governance of Gaza, and regional threats.
