Israelis oppose Iran ceasefire, divided over whether to respect it, poll says

Most respondents oppose the ceasefire, while 69% support continuing operations against Hezbollah, the poll found.

  • A Hebrew University poll shows 61% of Israelis oppose the Iran ceasefire agreed last week, while only 29% support it, leaving the public divided on whether Israel should respect the two-week truce or resume attacks.
  • While the ceasefire halted U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iran, it excludes the parallel war in Lebanon, where more than 61 percent of Israelis believe the truce should not extend to fighting Iranian-backed Hezbollah, a core Iranian demand.
  • Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's standing among Israelis dropped to 34 percent, down from 40 percent at the conflict's start, reflecting waning confidence in military success and campaign objectives.
  • Asked what Israel should do regarding Iran, 41 percent of respondents said the country should respect the ceasefire, while 39 percent favored continuing attacks, according to the Hebrew University poll.
  • The Israeli public remains pessimistic about the truce's durability; 73 percent believe Israel will need to resume fighting against Iran within the next year.
