About this episode
- Fate of Badfar disputed amid brutal strikes
- Iran missiles half cluster munitions spark alarm
- US leads war denies sole strikes
The time is now 11:02 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In Operation Lion's Roar, conflicting reports on Tuesday left open questions about the fate of Asadollah Badfar, the head of Basij affairs within Iran’s armed forces general staff, with opposition-linked media saying he was killed in joint Israel-US strikes and noting a funeral in Qom a day earlier. Iran International reported Badfar was killed in the strikes and that his funeral took place on 18 Esfand in Qom, a timeline that clashes with claims from an observer in Washington and social-media chatter; Iranian media had identified him in the Basij leadership. The Jerusalem Post could not independently verify the date, place, or cause. Separately, a StandWithUs update covering February 28th to March 10th, 2026, described Operation Roaring Lion with claims that Mortozov and Rostam Golumov were identified among those killed in a central-Israel strike attributed to the Iranian regime’s use of cluster munitions, noted Hezbollah rocket fire damaging a daycare and infrastructure, and said Israel struck laboratories linked to Iran’s nuclear program near Tehran. The update also asserted, in recap, that on February 28th the United States and Israel launched a coordinated operation against the Iranian regime, and that the account claimed Ayatollah Khamenei had been eliminated along with several other officials, while describing Israel’s aim to end the threat posed by the regime and its proxies.
In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, half of the Iranian ballistic missiles fired at Israel in the current exchange are reported to be cluster munitions, according to the IDF Home Front Command. The briefing explains that while traditional ballistic missiles typically carry 500 to 1,000 kilograms of explosives and strike a single target, cluster munitions comprise multiple smaller bombs spread over a broader area, potentially covering a 10-kilometer square, which can complicate shelter strategies and casualty footprints even as each individual strike may be less devastating than a single large missile. The IDF note came amid questions about the use of shelters in Israel in the face of ongoing fire, and a Hebrew-language line of reporting presents headlines about Tehran with no accompanying English details in the current collection.
In US Military Role, US Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said Israel’s strikes on Iranian fuel depots were not the United States’ strikes and not its objective, while stressing that Washington is leading and not being pulled in any direction by its ally. Axios reported that Israel’s late-week strikes on as many as 30 fuel depots in Iran took US officials by surprise even though targets had been briefed in advance. Hegseth also warned that Tuesday would be the most intense day of strikes against Iran in the campaign to date, with more jet and bomber activity expected. Separately, the top US general said Iran was not more formidable than anticipated as the United States pressed ahead with operations, including strikes against Iranian mine-laying vessels, and noted the Pentagon would consider options to escort ships through the Strait of Hormuz if tasked. President Trump had warned of escalation if oil shipments were blocked, as the broader war choked the Strait of Hormuz and disrupted global energy flows.
In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Israel’s Foreign Ministry issued key points about the regional war and the confrontation with Hezbollah and Iran. The statements contend that Hezbollah joined the conflict against the will of the Lebanese people and has fired more rockets toward Israel than Iran itself, while expressing openness to international efforts to disarm Hezbollah and urging countries to sever diplomatic ties with the Iranian regime for its actions in the region. The ministry also said there is no disagreement with the United States over Israel’s right to defend itself against Hezbollah, and suggested regime change in Iran could occur after the current military campaign ends. A separate entry simply titled Beirut right now offers a call to attention to developments in Beirut without further detail.
In US Policy Concerning Israel, a White House statement attributed to Secretary Hegseth on X declares, “We will not relent until the enemy is totally and decisively defeated.” The posting reinforces a hard-line stance presented in the public briefings around the ongoing campaign.
In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, Cyprus border authorities arrested a man identified as Lebanese-born Kamel M. on suspicion of Hamas membership and illegal transportation of 300 rounds of live ammunition to others suspected of Hamas, with plans for further action including extradition to Germany. The case ties to a broader network, with earlier arrests of another individual in Berlin linked to the same ammunition flow. In a separate item, Germany’s foreign minister asserted that Iran’s primary political goal is to eliminate the State of Israel, a point Germany cautions cannot be ignored in discussions of regional security.
