Iranian Defense Minister Visits Baku Security Talks
Mashhad Footage Shows Mass Murders of Protesters
Australia Antisemitism Surges Then Dips

The time is now 7:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In the conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, the Iranian defense minister is on an official visit to Baku, the capital of Azerbaijan, where he met the country’s president. Azerbaijan, which maintains strong military cooperation with Israel and shares a border with Iran, is cited in connection with the visit as part of regional security dynamics. Separately, new footage from a morgue in Mashhad, Iran’s second-largest city, has surfaced showing what observers describe as mass murders of protesters by the Iranian regime.

In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, antisemitic incidents across Australia surged in 2024 by about 400 percent to 2,062, then declined to 1,654 in 2025.

In Uplifting News, Shabbat candle lighting times for Israel and the United States vary by location, with examples showing candle lighting as early as 4:42 p.m. and as late as 5:59 p.m., and with Shabbat ends ranging roughly from 5:55 p.m. to 6:51 p.m. Parashat Yitro: Illuminating the fog reflects on the Revelation at Mount Sinai as the moment when the People of Israel receive a mission to carry a faith in one God and universal moral values, a moment followed by the Golden Calf episode that highlights human frailty even amid awe. Parashat Yitro: Before the revelation at Sinai describes how the great revelation unfolds after two ordinary scenes — Jethro’s arrival with Moses’ family and a setting of hospitality — showing how ordinary moments frame a monumental event that changes religious history. In science notes, NASA released dramatic images showing ribbons of the aurora borealis shimmering over Earth, encircling the planet with a thin orange halo at the edge of the atmosphere.
