Abstract

Al-Aqsa storm operation can be considered the biggest, most important and most fruitful operation of Palestinian groups against the Zionist regime in the last 75 years, which will change not only the security equations under the Shamat region, but also the security-political architecture of the entire West Asian region. Al-Aqsa storm is considered a big intelligence-security failure for the Zionist regime, which was immersed in the glory of having a powerful and invincible military-security apparatus, and this will also change many of the constructions that were formed about the Zionist regime. Based on this, The article, using descriptive-analytical method and using library and documentary sources, seeks to answer the question of what consequences the Al-Aqsa storm operation had on the national security of israel? The hypothesis of the research is that the operations of Palestinian groups on October 7 had negative consequences on the national security of the Zionist regime in military, political, social and economic dimensions. Based on this, the findings of the research show that The operations of Palestinian groups on October 7, 2023, not only had domestic and regional consequences for the Zionist regime, but also threatened the national security of this regime from international dimensions, and the inefficiency of the intelligence apparatus of the Zionist regime, as well as the non-fulfillment of the military doctrine of this regime, in addition to internal problems and economic, as well as the challenge in the field of foreign policy after the Al-Aqsa storm operation, has overshadowed the pillars of the national security of the Zionist regime in various dimensions. It can create fundamental and long-term challenges for the Zionist regime in the future.
