 HEADLINESIran issues death warrants for Trump and NetanyahuGaza school strike kills 12 amid ongoing Israeli blitzIran’s nuclear cooperation halts as tensions escalateThe time is now 10:00 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.Thank you for your instructions. Here is the final, polished hourly news update:At 10 a.m., tensions across the Middle East and international developments are shaping a complex and volatile landscape. Israel remains engaged in a direct conflict with Iran, with recent reports confirming that Iranian leadership has issued death warrants targeting both President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. These fatwas, issued by senior clerics, explicitly call for the assassination of the US president and Israel’s prime minister, labeling them enemies of Islam. Iran’s regime has also announced that it is ceasing cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency, heightening concerns over its nuclear ambitions.In Gaza, the humanitarian toll continues to rise amid ongoing Israeli military operations. A recent Israeli strike targeted a school used as a shelter for displaced Palestinians, resulting in the deaths of at least twelve civilians, including women and children. Eyewitnesses describe scenes of devastation with remnants of daily life strewn across the rubble, and residents expressing despair over the unrelenting violence. The Israeli military reports that in the past 24 hours, approximately 150 targets—including terror infrastructure, underground tunnels, and weapon sites—have been struck across Gaza as part of ongoing efforts to dismantle Hamas capabilities. IDF forces claim to have eliminated Hamas terrorists responsible for recent rocket attacks on southern Israel, continuing their operations both on land and in the air.Meanwhile, Israeli security forces have arrested three militants in the Jenin area during operations conducted by the Duvdevan unit, and additional measures have targeted weapons caches and terror cells in the West Bank. An Israeli police investigation is underway following the discovery of a suspicious envelope containing a powdery substance at the Israeli embassy in Copenhagen, which is now under scrutiny by local authorities.On the diplomatic front, Israel has announced plans to open its first embassy in Tallinn, Estonia, emphasizing strengthened ties and cooperation in areas such as digital innovation and regional security. Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Sa’ar highlighted the importance of these relationships amid regional tensions, especially in light of Iran’s nuclear and missile programs, which Israel says threaten regional and European stability.In the United States, key lawmakers have issued stern warnings regarding Ireland’s recent stance on Israel. Senator James Risch has cautioned that Ireland’s moves to criticize Israel and consider legislation restricting imports from Israeli settlements could lead to significant economic consequences, including the reevaluation of US-Ireland relations. This comes amid broader international debates over Israel’s military actions in Gaza and the rising tide of antisemitism, exemplified by legislation passed in Virginia criminalizing Nazi symbolism while safeguarding religious symbols like the swastika used by Hindu and Buddhist communities.Adding to the gravity of the situation, Iranian authorities have issued new fatwas inciting violence against Western and Israeli figures, and reports from Iran depict protests and calls for revenge following the recent killing of two young men by security forces. In the United States, the Department of Education has launched an investigation into allegations of anti-Semitic hostility at George Mason University, following incidents involving pro-terror sentiments and threats.Lastly, on a tragic note, Israeli police confirm the death of a central district officer, Ramat Gan’s Sergeant Yaniv Elkayam, who was fatally struck by a vehicle while performing his duties. The incident underscores the persistent dangers faced by security personnel in Israel amid ongoing conflicts and unrest.This is your update.
