Explanation:
The Arab-Israeli conflict refers to the political tension and armed conflicts between the State of Israel and its Arab neighbors, in particular the Palestinians.
Its definition, history and possible solutions are a matter of permanent debate and the problems it includes vary with time. As today, the main issues are the sovereignty of the Gaza Strip and the West Bank, the status of the eastern part of Jerusalem, the Golan Heights and the Shebaa Farms, the fate of Israeli settlements and Palestinian refugees, the recognition of Israel and Palestine; and their right to exist and live in peace sheltered from threats and acts of force, as well as Israel's relationship with Syria and Lebanon.
Currently Israel has peace treaties in force with Egypt and Jordan that guarantee their coexistence. Likewise, it has ceasefire treaties signed with Lebanon, Syria and Saudi Arabia that, although they do not recognize the existence of Israel, they have in practice provided an effective mechanism for the cessation of hostilities. There is also a complex agreement with Palestine, which involves the establishment of a kind of Israeli protectorate over the Palestinian area and a partial ceasefire.
