The missiles were all intercepted, but shrapnel and parts of cluster warheads did fall. No reports of casualties. In the past day there was an uptick in launches toward Israel, with about 20 missiles fired between Tuesday and Wednesday.In US Military Role, three US B-52 Stratofortress bombers arrived at RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire, following the weekend arrival of three B-1 Lancer aircraft. The B-52s have a combat range of 8,800 miles without refueling and can carry over 30 tons of ordnance. They have played a role in operations over Iran and, with new Rolls-Royce engines, remain in service into the 2050s. The arrival follows a shift in British policy as Prime Minister Keir Starmer reversed previous opposition to US bombing missions from the UK. Separately, US Central Command said it destroyed 16 boats used to lay mines and additional Iranian vessels.In Regional Impacts, Iranian Armed Forces spokesperson Brigadier-General Abolfazl Shekarchi called on regional Muslims and countries to reveal the locations of US and Israeli military assets to enable more accurate attacks, arguing this would help safeguard regional populations and urging people not to shield US forces. Qatar’s defense ministry announced that armed forces intercepted a missile targeting the State of Qatar, as Iran continues regional attacks. The UK Office of Maritime Trade Operations reported an attack on a container vessel in the Persian Gulf, roughly 25 nautical miles northwest of Ras Al-Khaimah in the United Arab Emirates; the vessel sustained damage from an unknown projectile, with the extent of the damage not yet known.In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, the Israeli military said a message in Arabic from its spokesperson announced an evacuation to areas in the southern Beirut suburb of Dahieh, including residents of nearby neighborhoods, as part of ongoing operations.In US Policy Concerning Israel, a report states that despite close coordination between Washington and Jerusalem, some American officials are concerned Israel may want the war to continue longer than the United States does.In Israeli Domestic Politics, a poll found that 82% of Israeli students can’t focus during the Iran war, with only 6% saying they can study effectively. In a separate interview, a member of Knesset criticized the proposed state budget as “a war crime against civilians” and said across-the-board cuts are being used to fund coalition demands.In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, Iranian state media circulated footage of a missile described as to be “toward the enemy,” with an inscription referencing Epstein, and alleging that Trump initiated a strike to silence the Epstein affair. Arabic criticism of Al Jazeera followed a broadcast showing opposition leader Yair Lapid at a site damaged by a fall, with an on-screen caption in Arabic using the term Greater Israel, prompting controversy over the network’s framing.Thank you for tuning in to this Israel Today: Ongoing War Report update.I'm Noa Levi.
