About this episode
Israel bombs Tehran Parchin missile facility
Bennett on Channel 12 with earpiece
Civilians resuscitate man in shelter with defibrillator
The time is now 3:01 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In Operation Lion's Roar, explosions were heard across Tehran and Karaj on Thursday, state media reported, after the IDF announced it had completed a wave of strikes across Tehran as well as central and western Iran. Over the past 24 hours, twenty IDF strikes were conducted across western Iran, targeting regime launching sites. These included strikes in Kermanshah and Dezful, targeting weapons storage and launching sites intended for ballistic missiles and aerial defense systems, with regime operatives at the sites eliminated. In addition, more than 60 Israeli Air Force jets, acting on IDF intelligence, dropped over 150 munitions to eliminate key Iranian weapon production sites in Tehran and central Iran over the course of Thursday. The IDF also struck Iran's primary missile and defense system production facility in Parchin, as well as a factory for casting and filling warheads with explosive materials. An additional site for mixing and casting ballistic missile engines was also targeted, along with a manufacturing site for critical components used in developing solid-fuel ballistic missiles. Central Iranian targets struck overnight included a Quds Force production site.
In Israeli Domestic Politics, questions circulated about why Prime Minister Bennett would appear on Channel 12 with an earpiece. A separate Channel 14 poll showed Bennett with 10 seats, with the right bloc at 65 seats and the left bloc at 43. Opposition leader Yair Lapid urged that, in wartime, the security establishment must warn before disaster and that the government cannot say “I didn’t know” this time, stressing that the appointed chief of staff should not be politicized. Aviaad Hiyd is described as the son of Brigadier General (ret.) Yair Volansky, who visited the security apparatus. The Defense Ministry later confirmed the name of the fallen IDF soldier, Sergeant Aviaad Elhanan Volansky, 21, from Jerusalem, a fighter in Battalion 77 of the Sa’ar Magulan formation, who fell in combat in southern Lebanon.
In Uplifting News, a man about 60 collapsed in a shelter in Petah Tikva as sirens sounded. Civilians on the scene delivered basic life support under remote guidance from Magen David Adom’s emergency center and used a defibrillator to administer a shock. Paramedics and emergency responders continued advanced CPR and shocks, and the man’s heart resumed beating. He was transported to Beilinson Hospital in stable condition. The civilian who initiated the CPR, Smadar Beracha, described how she followed phone guidance and coordinated with others to retrieve the defibrillator. Members of MDA, including Inbar Hermon, Ronald Kaikov, and Carmel Shafir, assisted the patient on the way to hospital.
