Israel Today: Ongoing War Report - Update from 2026-03-14 at 01:01

About this episode

HEADLINES
- Evacuation Ordered as IDF Strikes Iran
- Northern Israel Under Fire, Proxies Strike
- Drone Strike Hits Baghdad US Embassy Roof

The time is now 1:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Operation Lion's Roar, the Israeli Defense Forces issued an evacuation order for an industrial area west of Tabriz, Iran, via its Farsi-language post on X, urging residents to leave the designated area immediately and warning that remaining there puts their lives at risk as operations are expected in the coming hours. The warning followed the IDF's confirmation of 20 waves of strikes across western and central Iran, targeting more than 150 regime sites including missile sites, launchers, drone facilities, defense systems, and weapons production sites. The IDF also said the Israeli Air Force had eliminated several members of Iran's Basij forces who were operating roadblocks in Tehran, a group linked to the regime’s crackdown on protesters in January 2026. The message stressed safety for civilians in the area.

In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, sirens are now sounding in multiple northern communities after the intrusion of hostile aircraft. Overnight, the region faced coordinated strikes attributed to Iran and Lebanon, with a direct hit reported in the north but no casualties. The situation underscores ongoing high tensions between Israel and Iran and their regional proxies.

In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, reports indicate a missile struck a helicopter pad at the US Embassy complex in Baghdad, causing a small fire, with Iraqi security sources cited by AP describing the incident and other outlets noting a drone or rocket impact likely launched by Iranian-backed militant groups in Iraq. Video footage later emerged showing a small fire on the embassy roof after a drone strike attributed to Iranian-backed Iraqi paramilitary groups or Iran. Additional imagery showed smoke rising from the embassy compound, consistent with a possible direct impact on the roof by an Iranian one-way attack drone. Separately, Shi’ite cells in Gulf states are described as cooperating with Iran by leaking data and coordinates to the IRGC, filming defensive military activities, and documenting operations by Iranian missiles and drones; officials note a mix of sleeper cells across nationalities, including Indian, Pakistani, Bangladeshi, Algerian, and Tunisian, reflecting a covert network within Gulf states. The assembly of these reports highlights how proxies and clandestine networks are shaping the broader conflict in the region.

In US Policy Concerning Israel, the White House AI czar David Sacks urged that the United States should “declare victory and get out” of its war on Iran, signaling a rare call within the Trump-era circle to exit the confrontation. The remarks were reported by Reuters.

In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, four men were arrested after a bomb exploded at a Rotterdam synagogue. Ashab Al Yamim, a Shi’ite group, claimed responsibility for the attack, and no injuries were reported. Police have increased surveillance at other synagogues across the city and launched an extensive investigation. The suspects, aged 17 to 19, are being questioned as investigators seek further information from witnesses. The incident adds to rising concerns about anti-Semitic violence worldwide in the wake of joint US-Israeli actions against Iran.
