Israel Today: Ongoing War Report - Update from 2026-09-05 at 11:02

About this episode

HEADLINES
US Strikes Iranian Tankers After IRGC Attacks
Iran Plans Coordinated Multifront Attack on Israel
Houthis Gain Ground Against Yemeni Government

The time is now 11:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In US Military Role, the United States said it struck three Iranian tankers after missiles fired by Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps targeted US Navy ships. CENTCOM reported that a US aircraft carrier and a guided-missile destroyer evaded multiple Iranian attacks with no American casualties. One tanker was destroyed and two were disabled. Washington says the ships helped fund the IRGC and its proxies.

In Regional Impacts, the latest developments in Yemen show Houthi forces making gains against the Yemeni government, with government airstrikes described as an attempt to curb the advance. However, officials note that the lack of some assets used in the strikes could prompt Houthi retaliation against the Saudis in the near term. This follows an earlier escalation marked by the Yemeni government’s targeting of Sanaa Airport, which intensified the confrontation between the Yemeni government, the Houthis, and Saudi Arabia.

In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Israeli assessments indicate Tehran is seeking to coordinate its regional allies for a broad, simultaneous attack on Israel, aiming to bring Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas, the Houthis in Yemen and pro-Iranian militias in Iraq into a single campaign. The plan envisions multiple fronts opening at once, modeled on an October 7-like scenario but with full coordination from the outset. Planning documents cited in discussions of Hamas’s role stressed the need to connect and prepare the external fronts, including Lebanon, Syria and Sinai, and to establish advance communications for both routine times and wartime.

In Israeli Domestic Politics, the E1 debate is centered on security and strategic corridors as much as real estate. Twenty-nine Democratic senators have demanded that Israel halt proposed construction in the E1 area between Jerusalem and Ma’aleh Adumim. E1 sits in Area C, where Israel retains planning authority under the Oslo framework, despite international opposition. Supporters of Palestinian statehood warn the project would sever the Ramallah-Bethlehem corridor and threaten contiguity for a future Palestinian state, while opponents caution about security implications. The senators urged the United States to remain committed to a two-state solution that delivers lasting peace and security.

Jewish settlement is a strategic necessity across the West Bank, arguing that broad settlement helps deny terrorists sanctuary and strengthen Israel’s security from the Jordan Valley to the hills of Samaria. The piece cites concerns about geographic distribution and warns that relocating population toward coastal regions could weaken the state’s reach. It also critiques the Religious Zionist movement’s focus on settlements beyond enclaves and highlights areas such as Gush Etzion, the corridor to Ariel, and parts of the Jordan Valley.

Final 72 hours: Israel’s parties race to merge, quit or survive. With candidate lists due Tuesday night, Netanyahu is pushing another right-wing merger while Gantz, Tropper and Hendel face pressure to quit or join larger opposition parties, and Eisenkot promises surprises.
