Amatzia Baram, a researcher at the University of Haifa, has cautioned that reviving a nuclear deal between the US and Iran may expose Israel to wider security risks beyond the nuclear issue. He argues Washington appears focused on securing an agreement, while giving less weight to Iran’s missile capabilities and its backing of allied militant groups. As a result, he says Israel should brace for ongoing hostility from actors such as Hezbollah and press the US for stronger defence assurances if a restricted accord goes ahead.
