About this episode

HEADLINES
Tel Aviv casualties rise after Iranian strike
Iran fires missiles at Bahrain Qatar UAE
Israeli American strike hits Diyala province

The time is now 7:02 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Operation Lion's Roar, the conflict has sharpened with civilian casualties in Tel Aviv as an Iranian missile struck a central Tel Aviv residential building, killing a woman in her 40s, and a 68-year-old Tel Aviv resident who suffocated while running to shelter; in total two women have died and more than 120 people have been injured over the first two days of the operation. Following the direct strike, more than 200 residents were evacuated and housed in three nearby hotels, and authorities have inspected around 40 buildings in the area. The Israeli Defense Forces said the opening wave included strikes at multiple locations in Tehran where seven senior members of Iran’s security leadership were gathered, and the military asserted that about 40 senior Iranian commanders were killed within a minute. The IDF also claimed it dismantled most of Iran’s command and control capabilities. Separately, video released by the Israeli Air Force shows strikes at Tabriz Air Base in northwestern Iran, targeting and destroying two F-4 Phantom IIs and an F-5 Tiger II that were awaiting takeoff.

In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, reports indicate direct hits in Ashdod and Beit Shemesh amid the latest barrage, with authorities noting direct strikes in these locations. A written analysis accompanying the broader conflict describes a sharp acceleration in the Iranian regime’s missile production, now producing dozens of ballistic missiles each month and pursuing an ambitious goal of about 8,000 missiles by 2027, while also expanding underground production infrastructure. Interceptions continued, including the interception of a missile over Eilat, as part of the ongoing exchanges. The block also includes a provocative post in Hebrew calling for destruction of Tehran, reflecting the heightened rhetoric surrounding the hostilities.

In Iranian Retaliation, Iran renewed attacks this morning on Bahrain, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates. In a related development, Iran fired missiles toward Cyprus, with defense officials noting that 300 British troops are stationed on Cyprus near bases used by coalition forces; some missiles appeared aimed at Cyprus but fell short into the sea. Reports also indicate drone launches from Iran alongside ongoing missile fire, and authorities identified the largest barrage since Operation Claw, with 35 launches detected in the last hour, with additional barrages anticipated.

In US Military Role, Iraqi sources report an Israeli-American strike taking place in Diyala Province near the border with Iran in eastern Iraq, highlighting the expanding cross-border activity tied to the broader confrontation.

In Regional Impacts, authorities in Beit Shemesh declared an alert as the region braces for continued strikes, with early reports noting more than 10 people injured and further reports of casualties in the Shfala region. Initial reports also indicate a fall in Beit Shemesh, and there are indications that southern areas may see expansion toward the center later in the day. A regional analysis notes how the unfolding events are reshaping security considerations across neighboring areas and drawing in international responses as the conflict intensifies.

In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Hezbollah Secretary General Naim Qassem issued a statement offering condolences and blessings to Iran’s leadership on the martyrdom of its leaders, signaling continued commitment to what he described as the path of jihad, resistance, and solidarity with Iran’s cause against what he labeled as oppressive forces, reinforcing the alignment between Tehran and allied groups amid the broader confrontation.

In Israeli Domestic Politics, Lod City Hall was found bearing graffiti depicting a Palestinian flag, prompting a police investigation and sharp condemnation from municipal officials who called the act a deliberate provocation intended to inflame tensions during a delicate period. Security footage is being reviewed as authorities seek those responsible. The day’s violence also produced civilian harm, including a 10-year-old girl reported as seriously injured in the latest barrage, with additional injuries reported in the Shfela region and Beit Shemesh area. Meanwhile, Foreign Minister Gideon Saar continued marathon talks with foreign ministers around the world as the European Union prepared to discuss Iran in a forthcoming meeting, underscoring the international diplomatic dimension unfolding alongside the ongoing hostilities.
