Following the Democratic victory in the US midterm elections, assessments in Israel are intensifying regarding the potential impact on relations with the American administration. According to ynet and Maariv, analysts and public figures are warning of a possible shift in policy toward Iran and the potential promotion of sanctions regarding matters in Judea and Samaria. US affairs expert Kobi Bar-Da noted that the results could impact the continuity of aid to Israel. Meanwhile, Mojtaba Khamenei stated that the election results will not alter Washington's hostility toward Tehran, a sentiment echoed by other Iranian officials as reported by Kan 11 and Jinshi Data.
