List of military engagements of the Middle Eastern crisis (2023–present)

Dynamic list of military conflicts From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Middle East is experiencing an ongoing series of interrelated wars, conflicts, and heightened instability as a result of the Gaza war and genocide. These have primarily consisted of conflicts between Israel and Iran-backed militias that form the "Axis of Resistance", including Hamas in the Gaza Strip,[a] Hezbollah in Lebanon, and the Houthis in Yemen; Iran itself has also been involved. Allies of Israel, including the United States, the United Kingdom, and France, have also intervened militarily in various theaters. The crisis has involved all Middle Eastern countries, significantly affecting the region as a whole. Major conflict zones include the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, southern Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and the Red Sea, as well as the conflict zones of the Iran–Israel conflict.

This article lists all military engagements of the crisis, which includes battles, military operations, and incidents of combat. Belligerents are not included due to the large-scale intensity and spillover of the conflict.
