About this episode
IDF pounds Iran; Lebanon rocket hits Israel
Iran plots abducting US soldiers
Hezbollah rockets injure elderly Tel Aviv resident
The time is now 11:02 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In Operation Lion's Roar, the Israeli Defense Forces say they completed a broad wave of strikes against the Iranian regime’s infrastructure across multiple sites in Iran. The update also notes a launch from Lebanon toward central Israel that triggered alarms in the Gush Dan and Sharon areas with no prior warning. In Lebanon, two reservists and a battalion commander were wounded, one of them seriously. A US envoy later framed Day 26 of Roaring Lion as a continued focus on the Iranian regime’s naval capabilities, with key facilities being dismantled one by one.
In Iranian Retaliation, Iran is reportedly pursuing a plan to abduct American soldiers.
In US Military Role, Iran has reinforced defenses on Kharg Island in recent weeks in preparation for a possible ground operation ordered by President Donald Trump to seize the island.
In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Kuwait said a six-member cell tied to Hezbollah was arrested for planning assassinations of state leaders and symbols, and for recruiting people to carry out these tasks. Hezbollah also claimed responsibility for launching several long-range rockets at the Defense Ministry Headquarters in central Tel Aviv; all rockets were intercepted, and an elderly woman on her way to a shelter was injured and is in moderate condition.
In US Policy Concerning Israel, G7 foreign ministers meet in France against a backdrop of wars in Ukraine and Iran, amid concerns over what some officials describe as an unpredictable US foreign policy. The talks are centered on economic and geopolitical challenges facing the group. In a separate note, a video posted on X by the White House—featuring a woman believed to be Karoline Leavitt—appears to include the line, “It’s launching soon right?” though the context remains unclear.
In Uplifting News, this week’s Eretz Nehederet offered a Passover-themed segment that reflected the country’s wartime reality, including a Dayenu-style tune that skews toward resilience in the face of ongoing threats. Separately, activists in the United States are using Starlink to help Iranians stay connected amid a near-total internet blackout; organizers say they have delivered more than 300 devices to the country, moving terminals through neighboring states to counter government crackdowns that began in 2025 and carry jail terms for users.
In Uganda 'on the side of Israel' amid Iran war, defense chief claims, Uganda’s defense chief General Muhoozi Kainerugaba posted on X praising Israel and urging an end to the conflict, saying Uganda supports Israel and offering help from the UPDF to the United States and Israel. He floated the idea of a rapid win in Tehran in a claimed but later deleted post and indicated openness to joining the effort if the war continued. He also referenced plans to honor Lieutenant-Colonel Yonatan Netanyahu with a statue at Entebbe International Airport.
