About this episode
IRGC commander reportedly killed in Tehran strike
Six US service members killed in strikes
Europe prices surge as Hormuz disruptions widen
The time is now 8:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, authorities report continued Iranian fire with hundreds of air-raid alerts activated from Ashdod to Netanya after a series of launches identified as coming from Iran. Interceptors were fired at the targets, and residents heard loud blasts in the area. General Daoud Alizadeh, the commander of the Lebanon Corps in Iran’s IRGC Quds Force, is said to have been the target of this morning’s precision strike by the Israeli Air Force on Tehran. That strike on the IRGC command center in Tehran is reported to have eliminated Daoud Ali Zadeh. Early reports note a possible fall between Givat Shmuel and Bnei Brak. There are also reports of additional launches from Iran.
In US Military Role, the IRGC has claimed that 650 American troops were killed or wounded in the early days of the conflict, a figure not confirmed by the United States. The US military has confirmed the deaths of six service members, three of whom were killed in an attack on a US military base in Kuwait. The broader campaign described by officials involves joint US and Israeli strikes across numerous cities and targets, including facilities described as military, security sites, and even police stations, though the exact scope and attribution of specific hits remain contested.
In Regional Impacts, Arab media show a split response to the widening confrontation. Gulf governments condemn Iranian attacks on their territory and civilian infrastructure, while Iran-aligned actors denounce the US-Israel strikes as aggression, and a third group calls for de-escalation while quietly reinforcing air defenses and diplomacy. Israel is preparing for a gradual reopening of its airspace starting next week to help bring home Israelis stranded abroad, with Ben-Gurion Airport closed since the operation began; authorities say the process will proceed in stages in coordination with airlines. Europe’s energy markets are reacting to the conflict, with prices rising as disruptions to Gulf energy production and efforts to close the Strait of Hormuz ripple outward, underscoring the risk of broader spillover and ongoing caution about attribution.
In Uplifting News, Single in the bomb shelter? This Israeli app lets you look for love during war with Iran, as Hooked’s developers adapted the dating platform to shelter life. The setup uses QR codes at event entrances, with profiles and matches enabling conversation even in cramped spaces. Purim 2026: It’s not over until it’s good - opinion reflects on the holiday’s message of resilience, noting that courage and action can steer toward a hopeful outcome even in difficult times.

MAGA Republicans want total control. They want to gut the Voting Rights Act, erase black history, and eliminate diversity programs, all while redrawing congressional maps without voter input to rig the November elections. But here in Virginia, we can stop them. Vote yes by April 21st on a temporary measure that gives voters, not politicians, the final say on who represents us in Congress. They are not backing down and neither can we, paid for by Virginians for fair elections. The time is now 8.01 a.m. in New York. I'm Noah Levi and this is the latest Israel today, ongoing war report.
