Poll Finds Israeli Support for Arab Ties but Opposition to Two-State Solution

A June survey of Israeli voters found majority support for diplomatic agreements with several Arab states while showing continued opposition to a two-state solution and to international governance of Gaza. The poll, conducted by the Council for a Secure America, reported that 81% of respondents support the Abraham Accords, a record high in the group's tracking.

Support for future agreements reached 78% for Saudi Arabia, 72% for Lebanon, and 64% for Syria.

A 41% plurality of respondents said Israel should govern Gaza, compared with 25% who favored an international coalition that includes Arab countries. Among voters ages 44 and under, 54% supported sole Israeli control of Gaza. Sixty-three percent of respondents opposed a two-state solution, while 22% supported it.

Opposition was higher among younger voters, with 66% of those under 44 against the idea.

Sixty-one percent of respondents said Iran directs attacks by Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis, up 13 points from February 2025. Sixty-five percent said a coalition of the United States, Israeli Defense Forces, and Lebanese Armed Forces could disarm Hezbollah.

The survey interviewed 557 respondents, 89% online in Hebrew, with the remainder surveyed by phone. The margin of error was plus or minus 4 percentage points.
