Story summary

Three years after October 7 attacks, Israeli society has become more politically conservative, moving away from calls for peace negotiations with Palestinians. According to Al Jazeera's report by Nour Odeh, this rightward shift in Israeli politics had started well before the attacks. The growing influence of far-right parties and leaders is marginalizing moderate voices advocating for a settlement with Palestinians, reflecting a broader trend towards more hawkish policies.
