 HEADLINESIRGC appoints Mojtaba Khamenei as Supreme LeaderIran strikes Bahrain high-rise casualties confirmedUS warns Iran oil routes at riskThe time is now 3:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.In Iranian Retaliation, the selection of Mojtaba Khamenei as Iran's new Supreme Leader is presented as the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps' provocative battle cry. The IRGC chose him despite his lack of prior official posts, limited charisma, and only modest religious authority to serve as the earthly representative of al-Mahdi. The move is described as a decision aimed at continuing the fight, with IRGC leaders portraying the conflict as a matter of survival rather than purely ideological contention. Observers note that a broad swath of Iranian citizens are fed up with the regime and seek greater freedom, while the leadership seeks to preserve its power, privileges, and the status it has built at the expense of ordinary Iranians.In Regional Impacts, Israeli authorities have ordered residents in southern Lebanon to evacuate immediately to areas north of the Litani River as tensions along the border persist. Separately, additional air-raid sirens were reported in the northern town of Shlomi, underscoring ongoing security alarms in the region. In the United States, the Federal Aviation Administration has grounded all JetBlue flights nationwide. In the wider regional crisis, Iran has launched strikes on Manama, Bahrain, hitting a residential high-rise and resulting in fatalities and injuries.In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, an article reports that Eitan Davidi, described as a chair of a spying-related group, says he was wounded by fire from Hezbollah. Meanwhile, Syria formally accuses Hezbollah of firing from Lebanon and vows to respond with further attacks, signaling continued cross-border tensions and retaliatory posture from opposing actors.In US Policy Concerning Israel, the US president is described as sending mixed signals on the possibility of an Iran war, while also warning Iran of attacks “on a much harder level” if oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz are disrupted. Advisers are reportedly pushing for an exit strategy as oil prices rise and midterm concerns mount, reflecting a cautious approach to potential escalation in the region.In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, a class-action lawsuit contends that DOGE used ChatGPT to tag Jewish-themed humanities grants as DEI before canceling them. The suit argues this methodology helped cancel National Endowment for the Humanities grants studying topics such as violence against women during the Holocaust and postwar Soviet Jewish literature, among hundreds of other subjects, and seeks restoration of the canceled funding. It notes a large grant later awarded to the Tikvah Fund, a Jewish cultural project, as part of the NEH's funding profile, with the suit targeting the NEH, its acting chair, and several DOGE staffers.In Israeli Economy and Business, Sanaz Yashar, the CEO of Israeli cybersecurity firm Zafran Security, arrived in Israel from Tehran at age 17. She describes observing a convergence of action between the United States and Israel against Iran as a turning point, calling it proof that a new level of cooperation is in effect. While acknowledging uncertainty about Iran’s future leadership, she cautions that the regime may not collapse like Syria and that an alternative leadership could emerge within the current regime, though she cannot say who that might be. Her reflections underscore the impact of regional shifts on the tech and security sectors in Israel.Thank you for tuning in to this Israel Today: Ongoing War Report update.I'm Noa Levi.
