Amos Harel
Amos Harel (Hebrew: עמוס הראל) is an Israeli journalist.
Harel was born in 1968. He attended high school at Hebrew University Secondary School. He graduated from Tel Aviv University and lives in Hod Hasharon.
As of 2025, Harel is the military and defense analyst for the Israeli newspaper Haaretz.
From 1999 to 2005, Harel anchored a weekly program about defense issues on Army Radio. Before becoming the military analyst for Haaretz, he spent four years as the night editor of the printed Hebrew edition.
In the year leading up to the war in Gaza, Harel's work was very critical of Itamar Ben Gvir and other far-right members of the Knesset. Harel repeatedly expressed concern that Ben Gvir's policies, provocative actions, and "chutzpah" would lead to a "third intifada".
This was a common concern in Israel in the year before the October 7 attacks, but went largely unnoticed except in media focused on the Middle East.
Harel did not foresee the escalation from Gaza, instead predicting increased violence in the West Bank and Jerusalem. On 6 October 2023 he wrote a piece headlined "It's Not Yet an Intifada, but the West Bank Is Heading Towards an Eruption".
