 HEADLINES- Lion's Roar strike hits Iranian drone storage- Israel Iran war extends through Passover- Iran to form regional committee on targetsThe time is now 12:02 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.In Operation Lion's Roar, dramatic footage shows an Israeli airstrike on an Iranian regime storage facility for attack drones. Following the strike, numerous regime operatives can be seen fleeing the site before themselves being struck by Israeli forces.In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, Israel says the war will continue for at least three more weeks, with thousands of targets still ahead. The IDF spokesperson Brigadier General Effie Defrin told CNN that the IAF has conducted more than 400 waves of airstrikes across Iran since the conflict began, and that the campaign, known as Operation Roaring Lion, has targeted missile stockpiles and IRGC personnel. The military says more than 6,000 IRGC members have been killed and about 15,000 wounded thus far. The Israeli plan is to press on through Passover, with deeper plans beyond that, in coordination with US allies. US officials, including Energy Secretary Chris Wright, say they expect these operations to wind down in the coming weeks, with a rebound in supplies and a drop in prices as the conflict subsides.In Iranian Retaliation, Iran’s Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi denied that Iran has targeted civilians, saying strikes have hit only US assets and that collateral damage in residential areas is not intentional. He said Tehran is ready to form a regional committee with neighboring Gulf and Middle Eastern countries to determine the nature of the targets attacked and whether they were American. Tehran has said it has struck American bases in the region in retaliation for attacks against Iran.In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Bahrain announced the detention of five individuals and identified a sixth, accusing them of collecting and passing sensitive information to Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Corps through terrorist elements in Iran, and of recruiting operatives to carry out terrorist plots against Bahrain. The authorities described these acts as attempts to undermine sovereignty and threaten security. In the United States, authorities say the Lebanese man who attacked a synagogue in Michigan was the brother of a Hezbollah commander killed in an Israeli airstrike; Ibrahim Muhammad Ghazali was described as having managed weapons operations within Hezbollah’s Badr Unit, a group cited as launching rockets toward Israeli civilians during the war.In US Policy Concerning Israel, an exchange surrounding remarks to News 14 saw President Trump call a claim “fake news” in the view of a host, while Ambassador Huckabee responded to a video posted by Prime Minister Netanyahu. The commentary underscores ongoing political debate over US messaging on the broader conflict.In Israeli Domestic Politics, prosecutors reached agreements with the defense in the case of Jonathan Oriych to ease conditions of his release. He remains barred from leaving the country and barred from contacting co-defendants on matters related to the investigation, but the deal allows contact with Prime Minister Netanyahu under the condition that conversations do not touch the investigation, with safeguards and guarantees in place.In Israeli Economy and Business, a private parcel of land in Rishon LeZion is being offered in PRE-SALE with a fast-track path to a new apartment before prices rise. The Park North neighborhood is described as an urban district under development with a large park, two metro stations, and a city-backed housing and commercial hub. Land units start from 230,000 shekels, with further details available through promotional materials.Thank you for tuning in to this Israel Today: Ongoing War Report update.I'm Noa Levi.
