El conflicto árabe-israelí (en árabe: الصراع العربي الإسرائيلي Al-Sira'a Al'Arabi A'Israili; en hebreo: הסכסוך הישראלי-ערבי Ha'Sikhsukh Ha'Yisraeli-Aravi) se refiere a la tensión política y los conflictos armados entre el Estado de Israel y sus vecinos árabes, en particular los palestinos. Su definición, historia y posibles soluciones son materia de permanente debate y los problemas que incluye varían con el tiempo. Al día de hoy, las principales cuestiones son la soberanía de la Franja de Gaza y Cisjordania, el estatus de la parte oriental de Jerusalén, de los Altos del Golán y de las Granjas de Shebaa, el destino de los asentamientos israelíes y de los refugiados palestinos, el reconocimiento de Israel y Palestina y de su derecho a existir y vivir en paz al abrigo de amenazas y actos de fuerza, así como la relación de Israel con Siria y el Líbano. Actualmente Israel tiene tratados de paz vigentes con Egipto y Jordania que garantizan su convivencia. Asimismo, tiene tratados de alto el fuego firmados con el Líbano, Siria y Arabia Saudí que, si bien no reconocen la existencia de Israel, sí que han supuesto en la práctica un mecanismo eficaz para el cese de las hostilidades. También existe un complejo acuerdo con Palestina, que supone el establecimiento de una especie de protectorado israelí sobre zona palestina y un alto el fuego parcial.

The Arab–Israeli conflict (Arabic: الصراع العربي الإسرائيلي‎‎ Al-Sira'a Al'Arabi A'Israili; Hebrew: הסכסוך הישראלי-ערבי‎‎ Ha'Sikhsukh Ha'Yisraeli-Aravi) refers to the political tension, military conflicts and disputes between a number of Arab countries and Israel. The roots of the modern Arab–Israeli conflict are bound in the rise of Zionism and Arab nationalism towards the end of the 19th century. Territory regarded by the Jewish people as their historical homeland is also regarded by the Pan-Arab movement as historically and currently belonging to the Palestinians, and in the Pan-Islamic context, as Muslim lands. The sectarian conflict between Palestinian Jews and Arabs emerged in the early 20th century, peaking into a full-scale civil war in 1947 and transforming into the First Arab–Israeli War in May 1948 following the Declaration of the Establishment of the State of Israel. Large-scale hostilities mostly ended with the cease-fire agreements after the 1973 Yom Kippur War. Peace agreements were signed between Israel and Egypt in 1979, resulting in Israeli withdrawal from the Sinai Peninsula and abolishment of the military governance system in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, in favor of Israeli Civil Administration and consequent unilateral annexation of the Golan Heights and East Jerusalem. The nature of the conflict has shifted over the years from the large scale regional Arab–Israeli conflict to a more local Israeli–Palestinian conflict, peaking during the 1982 Lebanon War. The interim Oslo Accords led to the creation of the Palestinian National Authority in 1994, within the context of the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. The same year Israel and Jordan reached a peace accord. A cease-fire has been largely maintained between Israel and Baathist Syria, as well as more recently with Lebanon (since 2006). However, developments on the course of the Syrian Civil War effectively reshuffled the situation near Israeli northern border bringing Syrian Arab Republic, Hezbollah and Syrian Opposition in odds with each other and complex relations with Israel. The conflict between Israel and Hamas-ruled Gaza, which resulted in the 2014 cease-fire, is usually also included as part of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict and hence the Arab–Israeli conflict. Its 2006-2012 phase is, however, also attributed to the Iranian proxy war with Israel in the region. Since 2012, Iran has cut ties with the Sunni Hamas movement on account of the Syrian civil war. Despite the peace agreements with Egypt and Jordan, interim peace accords with Palestine and the generally existing cease-fire, the Arab world and Israel generally remain at odds with each other over many issues.
