Key Findings The June 2026 survey indicates widespread public criticism in Israel regarding both the outcomes of the campaign against Iran and the state of relations with the United States: 66% believe that the Memorandum of Understanding recently reached between the United States and Iran is detrimental to Israel; 37% assess that Iran won the war, and 43% believe the war ended without a decisive outcome, compared to only 15% who view Israel as the victor.

Israel Defense Forces Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir warned senior command earlier this week that the erosion of values within the military is unacceptable. In his remarks, Zamir pointed to the growing phenomenon of politically themed patches worn by soldiers, rather than apolitical ones, as well as incidents of looting and other breaches of the army's ethical code.

Summary of the Results With the US-brokered ceasefire with Iran taking effect, it appears that a majority of the Israeli public opposes it: 61% is opposed, compared to only 29% of the public who supports it. At the same time, there is notable disappointment with the achievements of the campaign and the extent of the damage inflicted on Iran.
