Before the start of the special military operation, despite a fairly strong strategic alliance with the United States, Israel pursued a pragmatic foreign policy and maintained mutually beneficial bilateral relations with the leading powers of the non-Western world - especially Russia, China and India. However, the sharp escalation of the situation in the Palestinian territories in October 2023 put Israel in front of an existential choice under the conditions of the emerging new bipolarity, and this choice was made in favor of the United States and its NATO allies. Now the official rhetoric in Israel has become consonant with the one that prevailed during the period of the severed relations between Russia and Israel. Nevertheless, in formulating policies where Russian and Israeli positions do not coincide, both sides continue to coordinate all actions within the framework of a joint dialogue. The article focuses on the main issues on which Russia and Israel differ: Ukrainian, Iranian, and Palestinian factors. China and India occupy a special place among Israel’s foreign policy priorities. The importance of these countries for the Jewish state will be increasing due to the inevitable isolationist tendencies in the region, which are growing against the backdrop of the worsening Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The article examines the main trends in Israel’s relations with some Arab countries, China and India.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="ru"><p style="text-align: justify;">Анализируются основные направления внешней политики Государства Израиль в условиях нынешней трансформации мирового порядка и формирующейся «новой биполярности». До начала специальной военной операции (СВО), несмотря на достаточно прочный стратегический союз с США, Израиль проводил прагматичный внешнеполитический курс и поддерживал взаимовыгодные двусторонние отношения с ведущими державами незападного мира, неаффилированными с евроатлантическим альянсом, - Россией, КНР и Индией. Однако резкое обострение ситуации на палестинских территориях в октябре 2023 г. поставило Израиль перед экзистенциальным выбором в условиях зарождающейся новой биполярности, и этот выбор был сделан в пользу США и их союзников по НАТО. Сейчас официальная риторика в Израиле стала созвучной с той, которая получила распространение в период разрыва отношений между Россией и Израилем. Тем не менее при формировании конкретной политики, когда российская и израильская точки зрения не совпадают, обе стороны по-прежнему координируют все действия в рамках диалога. Авторы фокусируют внимание на основных проблемах, по которым у России и Израиля существуют расхождения: украинский, иранский и палестинский факторы. Среди приоритетов внешней политики Израиля особое место занимают Китай и Индия. Значение этих стран для еврейского государства будет возрастать из-за неизбежных изоляционистских тенденций в регионе, которые усиливаются на фоне обострения палестино-израильского конфликта. Рассмотрены основные тренды в отношениях Израиля с некоторыми арабскими странами, а также КНР и Индией.</p></trans-abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="zh"/><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Middle East</kwd><kwd>Russia</kwd><kwd>Ukraine</kwd><kwd>USA</kwd><kwd>Iran</kwd><kwd>China</kwd><kwd>India</kwd><kwd>Israeli foreign policy</kwd><kwd>Palestinian problem</kwd><kwd>bipolarity</kwd><kwd>conflicts</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Ближний Восток</kwd><kwd>Россия</kwd><kwd>Украина</kwd><kwd>США</kwd><kwd>Иран</kwd><kwd>Китай</kwd><kwd>Индия</kwd><kwd>внешняя политика Израиля</kwd><kwd>палестинская проблема</kwd><kwd>биполярность</kwd><kwd>конфликты</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group/></article-meta></front><body></body><back><ref-list><ref id="B1"><label>1.</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="en">Brooks, S.
