The majority of Israeli and Palestinian youth believe that the bitter Israeli-Palestinian conflict "will never end," a survey released Thursday by the International Committee of the Red Cross has found.

According to the ICRC survey of people between the ages of 20 and 35 living in war-affected areas, 65% of Israeli and 52% of Palestinian respondents said that they expected the rivalry to last for years, if not for the decades to come.

The ICRC said that such figures made for the most pessimistic attitude across all groups surveyed in a global poll, which included 16,000 respondents.

The survey also revealed millennials to be anxious across the board, with 42% expecting a major catastrophic war to break out in their lifetime, and more than half fearing that a nuclear strike will be conducted within the next decade.

"In general, the results indicate that millennials are nervous about the future, and heightened tensions in the Middle East are likely to deepen these fears," the ICRC said in a statement.

The simmering conflict has been ongoing for decades, and, formally, there are currently no peace talks between Israeli and Palestinian leaders – however, reports of Israel's under-the-radar ceasefire talks with the Hamas, the terrorist group that controls the Gaza Strip, have been emerging recently.

Despite that, recent days saw yet another escalation, with the IDF bombing Hamas targets in Gaza following terrorist rocket fire on Israeli communities near the border.
