HEADLINESIRGC strikes Israel, Trump's image airedIsrael readies long Lebanon operation against HezbollahIran rejects US plan, demands own termsThe time is now 12:02 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps published footage of the latest strike against Israel, accompanied by images of Donald Trump.In Regional Impacts, Iran has reviewed a US proposal to end the war and called its conditions excessive, saying Tehran would end the conflict only on its own terms and if its conditions are met. An Iranian official confirmed to Reuters that the response was not positive, and said Tehran delivered the initial reply to Pakistan for conveyance to Washington. A high‑ranking Iranian diplomatic source described the plan as extremely maximalist and unreasonable, noting that the US 15‑point plan addresses Iran’s ballistic missiles, nuclear program, and issues around the Strait of Hormuz. Separately, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez condemned Israel’s actions and warned of economic fallout from the Iran war, saying more than four million people have been displaced in Iran and Lebanon and that Spanish firms face heavy losses, stressing that every bomb hits people’s wallets. The Pakistani analysis describes Field Marshal Asim Munir, army chief since 2022, as having consolidated power over security forces and, with constitutional changes, the potential for greater influence over security and political immunity. Lebanon’s health ministry reported 1,094 deaths since the war began.In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Israel is preparing for a potential long operation in Lebanon, with Defense Minister Katz saying orders to destroy bridges over the Litani River used for terrorist activity and to accelerate the demolition of border-area Lebanese houses to thwart threats to Israeli settlements, in a framework echoing Gaza’s Beit Hanoun and Rafah models. Hezbollah Secretary General Naim Qassem released a statement framing the conflict as a choice between surrender and resistance, calling for national unity and saying victory comes from God. The IDF said Hezbollah fired about 120 rockets from the outskirts of Tyre, accusing the group of using civilians as human shields and ordering civilian evacuation to protect lives as strikes targeted Hezbollah infrastructure. Overnight, IDF soldiers near Mount Dov apprehended a cell commander from the Lebanese Resistance Brigades, an organization affiliated with Hezbollah, who was transferred for interrogation in Israel. Sirens sounded across northern Israel as Hezbollah launched a rocket attack from Lebanon, with no injuries reported.In Israeli Domestic Politics, a report notes a high‑profile on‑air remark by an Israeli figure and the ensuing political reaction, with security officials describing Iran’s ceasefire demands as illogical and an immediate directive issued as part of the broader security posture, including discussions of preventive actions in response to external pressure.In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, a piece claims that the Qur’an contains verses interpreted as recognizing the land as belonging to the Children of Israel, citing passages from Surah Al-Ma'idah, Surah Al-A'raf, and Surah Al-Isra, among others, arguing that the covenant regarding the land is conditional and that some propagandists misuse scripture to support certain territorial claims.Thank you for tuning in to this Israel Today: Ongoing War Report update.I'm Noa Levi.
