Experts claim that Hamas is regenerating after the attack on Israel on October 7, 2022, by recruiting fighters and rehabilitating infrastructure in Gaza. Despite losing many members, Hamas is mobilizing reserves and remains capable of armed conflict. The new leadership under Yahya Sinwar is more hardline than his predecessor, Ismail Haniyeh, and believes in armed struggle for Palestinian statehood. Analysts suggest that diplomatic solutions are lacking, and Hamas's role is crucial in any ceasefire negotiations.
