About this episode
IDF claims killing Khamenei and IRGC chiefs
US probes outdated coords behind Minab strike
Global oil release to ease Hormuz risk
The time is now 2:02 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In Operation Lion's Roar, the Israel Defense Force described day one as a turning point, saying a coordinated airstrike enabled the elimination of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and roughly 35 other top Iranian officials including IRGC leaders in about 40 seconds around 8:15 a.m. on February 28, with participation from F-16s, F-35s, and F-15s among others and extensive planning. The IDF said airpower and munitions were deployed across the first day of attacks. The IDF also released footage of strikes on IRGC command-and-control nodes in Tehran and additional targets inside Iran, including IRGC C2 centers associated with the IRGC Air Force, a facility at the IRGC central military university, ballistic missile storage and launch sites, and bases operated by the Basij Internal Security Force.
In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, Iranian agency Fars reported that security personnel, including Basij members, were killed in Tehran in an attack on four checkpoints in the capital, described as a joint operation by Mossad and loyalists to the regime. Sirens were heard across central Israel during a missile attack from Iran, with at least one missile intercepted. Other notices indicate further interceptions and ongoing siren activity across central Israel as the conflict persists.
In US Military Role, preliminary findings indicate the United States was responsible for the Tomahawk strike on the Iranian girls’ school in Minab, where hundreds were killed. The investigation says CENTCOM relied on outdated coordinates provided by the DIA, and that the building had originally been part of the nearby IRGC naval base, though it is not clear when the two areas separated. Officials are examining why outdated information was not double‑checked and whether AI or other intelligence systems could have influenced the targeting, though that possibility is viewed as unlikely at the time.
In Regional Impacts, the International Energy Agency’s 32 member states approved releasing 400 million barrels from strategic oil reserves to mitigate potential disruptions from the Iran conflict and the threat to the Strait of Hormuz. The G7 backed the move, with Germany, Japan, and Australia among those expected to draw on reserves; Japan’s prime minister said the country would lead in easing supply and demand conditions. Germany’s economy minister emphasized solidarity with the IEA effort. Separately, CENTCOM warned civilians to avoid ports used by Iranian military forces along the Strait of Hormuz, saying civilian ports used for military purposes lose protected status and become legitimate military targets under international law, while Iranian naval assets have been reported in some civilian ports. The United States said it would continue taking precautions to minimize harm to civilians.
In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, launches toward central Israel were reported as intercepted, with further fire from Lebanon toward the north noted as the regional struggle intensifies, reflecting the widening scope of hostilities linked to Iran and its allied groups.
In US Policy Concerning Israel, President Donald Trump said he was not worried about Iranian attacks on US soil. He claimed that Iran’s mine-laying ships had been destroyed along with much of the regime’s navy in a single night, and urged oil companies to utilize the Strait of Hormuz. He noted ongoing discussions with G7 leaders and framed the oil reserves release as a necessary response to the disruption, saying the group had never seen anything like it.
In Israeli Domestic Politics, the government approved an updated 2026 state budget during wartime, adding about 30 billion shekels to the defense budget to support Operation Roaring Lion. More than 5 billion shekels were allocated to ultra-Orthodox institutions, with additional funds directed toward West Bank settlements; the spending comes from other ministries. The budget was passed unanimously in a Zoom meeting and awaits final votes before the end of March to avoid dissolution and new elections.
In Uplifting News, evangelical leader Mike Evans visited a Beit Shemesh family devastated by a missile strike and provided $50,000 in aid to help with medical bills, housing, and recovery, meeting with the injured at Hadassah Hospital in Jerusalem and hearing firsthand how the attack affected their lives.
