The International Sociological Association (ISA) announced the suspension of its ties with the Israeli Sociological Association, claiming it "did not condemn the genocide in Gaza." This decision will impact the participation of Israeli researchers in international conferences and intensify Israel's academic isolation in the field. During the past year, ISA condemned the U.S. and Israel for attacking Iran, and the IDF for operations against Hezbollah, Houthis and Hamas, without mentioning the context for these strikes. The Israeli association condemned the decision and clarified that it is an independent, non-governmental professional body that has previously criticized Israeli policies.
