Operation Trapiche of the Federal Police (PF), which arrested two men accused of being part of Hezbollah and planning attacks on synagogues in Brazil, ignited the warning about possible terrorist activities in the country, mainly in Paraná, in the triple border region with Paraguay and Argentina, where there are many Arab communities established. But experts explain that despite the seriousness of the current investigation, the most important thing ever made, there has never been concrete evidence in the past accusations that these sites are of special interest to the terrorist groups in the Middle East. Still, due to Hezbollah’s relevance as Lebanon’s political organization, it is not difficult to find residents of cities like Foz do Iguaçu and Ciudad Del Leste that have some connection with the group.

The war between Israel and Hamas makes the two-state solution less viable than ever before. Achieving peace requires political will, compromise, and initiative from the international community.
