HEADLINESIsrael strikes Tehran Spaha Bank, IRGC financesIran demands future guarantees for ceasefireUS loads bunker-buster bombs at FairfordThe time is now 5:02 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.In Operation Lion's Roar, reports from Iranian opposition channels say the Israeli Air Force attacked the Spaha Bank building in central Tehran, with the bank described as the central financial arm of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and the channel through which salaries are paid to its members.In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, Iranian officials told Bloomberg they demand guarantees that neither the United States nor Israel will attack Iran in the future in order to sign a ceasefire for the current conflict. The officials say the regime's main concern is a resumption of Israeli operations once the war ends, and Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian posted that ending the war requires recognition of Iran's legitimate rights, payment of reparations, and firm international guarantees against future aggression. The Israel Defense Forces conducted a wide-scale wave of strikes against Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps infrastructure across Iran, and simultaneously with strikes on Hezbollah targets in Beirut, with the IDF saying it hit several IRGC infrastructure sites in Tehran and other strongholds. There were also reports that there was a launch from Iran.In United States Military Role, at the Royal Air Force base at Fairford in Britain, bunker-busting bombs were loaded onto United States strategic bombers.In Regional Impacts, analysts say the war with Iran is shaping the region's dynamics, with Palestinians facing daily insecurity in the West Bank, Gaza's political future uncertain, and the Palestinian Authority increasingly sidelined from key decisions. Separately, the Thai-flagged bulk carrier M/R MAYUREE NAREE was struck in the Strait of Hormuz by an Iranian uncrewed surface vessel while trying to transit the strait, causing a large hole and several fires onboard; twenty Thai crew members were rescued by the Royal Navy of Oman, with three missing as of the evening. After a wide Hezbollah barrage toward Israel, Lebanon's presidency and Syria's president and France's president Macron spoke; there were indications that Iran had planned hundreds of missile launches that day before the air force changed the balance. Alarms and sirens were heard as rockets and drones were reported from Lebanon into northern Israel.In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, northern Israel continues to face sustained cross-border attacks from Hezbollah and other actors, with more than forty rockets fired at Haifa and the surrounding area, and sirens continuing to sound across the north as drones operate from Lebanon and Iran.In United States Policy Concerning Israel, Governor Gavin Newsom said he is in constant coordination with security and intelligence officials to monitor potential threats tied to the conflict in the Middle East, and that there are no imminent threats at this time, with the state prepared for any emergency. In a separate development, former United States President Donald Trump again criticized Israeli President Isaac Herzog over Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's pardon request, arguing that Netanyahu should decide on the pardon himself and that he should be focused on the war.Thank you for tuning in to this Israel Today: Ongoing War Report update.I'm Noa Levi.
