About this episode

HEADLINES
Israel strikes Iran top security figure Hijazi
Drone breach triggers northern Israel red alert
US base Camp Arifjan hit casualties mount

The time is now 12:01 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Operation Lion's Roar, the Israeli Air Force continued its strikes in western Iran, targeting more than 400 aims connected to the regime, including ballistic missile launchers and storage sites for unmanned aerial systems. During the operations, aircraft identified a truck in the Harod area carrying an air-defense system and destroyed it as it tried to move the system to another location. A civilian, a young woman, was lightly injured by shrapnel from intercepts, as the campaign expanded. In a separate development, the IDF said it targeted Seyyed Ali Asghar Hijazi, described as one of Iran’s most influential figures in Khamenei’s inner circle and a key security official who was viewed as a possible successor to the supreme leader. The Israeli Air Force also released cockpit footage from its jets over Iran, with a pilot saying the fight continues around the clock and wishing Israeli citizens a safe and quiet Shabbos.

In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, red alert sirens sounded in northern Israel after a drone breached the area. Earlier reports from the region described injuries and casualties tied to cross-border exchanges, including a young woman who was lightly wounded by shrapnel and several soldiers wounded near the Lebanon border. Explosions were reported west of Tehran, underscoring the widening scope of the confrontation as cross-border fire intensified.

In US Military Role, heavy damage was reported at Camp Arifjan in Kuwait, with the majority of American casualties occurring at that base, underscoring the strategic toll of the current hostilities in the region.

In Regional Impacts, Planet Labs said it would hold back imagery for 96 hours of Gulf states targeted by Iranian drone attacks, delaying access to new high-resolution images to protect personnel on the ground; images of Iran were not included in this restriction. Separately, witnesses described sleepless nights in Tehran as explosions lit the sky and civilian casualties and infrastructure damage mounted, highlighting the human cost of daily air and missile strikes. Eastward disruption from the conflict also spread to Europe, as Denmark warned that overseas votes cast from affected regions might not arrive in time for its March 24 election due to Middle East turmoil.

In US Policy Concerning Israel, a flash survey from the Jewish People Policy Institute found that 68% of connected American Jews back the United States taking military action against Iran, while 26% oppose and 7% are undecided, with support varying by political ideology. Former President Trump asserted there would be no deal with Iran and that the United States would accept only the regime’s unconditional surrender. He also asserted that thousands of people are being moved quietly, but seamlessly, out of Middle Eastern countries as the conflict unfolds.

In Uplifting News, Shabbat Shalom greetings came from Israeli pilots now overhead Iran, as they shared a message of resilience and safety for Israeli citizens amid ongoing operations.
