HEADLINES
Khamenei Killed in Tehran Command Complex
Russia Shares US Warships and Aircraft Locations
UAE Plans Multibillion Iranian Asset Freeze

The time is now 8:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Operation Lion's Roar, clandestine IDF units 8200 and 9900 provided key intelligence to the air force to strike the underground bunker of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, described as a secret subterranean complex with multiple entrances in the heart of Tehran and one of the regime's critical command centers. The IDF said fifty aircraft targeted the lair, employing more than one hundred munitions. A report notes that on February 28, Khamenei was killed in his regular command complex. Analysts in the West and region warn that Tehran could respond with escalation, potentially widening the conflict and drawing in other powers.

In US Military Role, a Washington Post report says Moscow has shared intelligence on the locations of US warships and aircraft since the war began, and a source describes the coordination as a comprehensive effort.

In Regional Impacts, the UAE is weighing a multibillion-dollar freeze of Iranian assets held in the UAE, with eyes on assets tied to Iranian shadow companies based in Dubai, and the possibility of first targeting IRGC-linked accounts. Officials say an all-encompassing Iranian asset freeze could hit the UAE economy, and authorities are considering other options including tightening controls on local currency exchanges and direct maritime action against Iranian ships. Iran has targeted sites in the UAE since the start of Operation Roaring Lion, with more than 1,000 drone and missile attacks. Alarms were reported in southern Israel, and alarms were also heard in Kiryat Shmona and the surrounding area.

In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich's son was wounded on the Lebanon border, with reports indicating only light wounds and stable condition.

In Israeli Domestic Politics, a report questions alleged incitement on a Channel 14 program, while the IDF spokesman, Lieutenant Colonel Efi Dafrin, will deliver a briefing to the media at 15:15.

In Uplifting News, Israel's Health Ministry and the Home Front Command rapidly cleared hospital occupancy in the first 36 hours of Operation Roaring Lion, transferring hundreds of patients and expanding home hospitalization to prepare for mass-casualty scenarios. The shift to Alert Level D involved early discharges, inter-hospital transfers, and a broad expansion of home hospitalization, with general hospitals instructed to reduce occupancy to about 50% and higher-risk facilities given target levels.
