Nine attack zones hit Tel Aviv hardest

The time is now 7:02 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, President Donald Trump says Iran’s new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei may not have survived recent attacks, and Trump asserts Iran planned to obliterate Israel and take over the Middle East. The Iranian regime continues to target residential areas in Israel, aiming to cause maximum destruction and devastation and endangering people across the region.

In US Military Role, the US Army has awarded Anduril Industries a contract worth up to $20 billion to integrate advanced commercial technologies into a unified, AI‑driven system focused on counter-drone operations, consolidating the Lattice suite, hardware, data, and support services into a single mission-ready capability under an open architecture. The contract runs through March 2036 and is overseen by the Army Contracting Command at Aberdeen Proving Ground. Separately, the IDF chief praised unprecedented work by US partners in providing logistical support for Operation Roaring Lion.

In Regional Impacts, authorities report nine attack zones to date, with Tel Aviv accounting for five zones and two people lightly injured; other zones cited include Holon, Petah Tikva, Hamad, and Kfar Azar. Documentation of the fall in Tel Aviv has been recorded. In central Israel, civilians remained in the street contrary to guidance, and near a dispersal missile fall three civilians sustained light injuries. Air raid sirens sounded across central and northern Israel, with impacts identified in Tel Aviv and three people lightly wounded; sirens were also heard in the Nahariya area after fire from Lebanon toward Acre and the Krayot.

In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Lebanese media report that Israel struck the al-Khadrali Bridge over the Litani River, connecting Marjayoun to Nabatieh, and that yesterday Israel hit another bridge on the Litani, the al-Zarariya Bridge.

In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, a US Jewish lawmaker released audio of an antisemitic death threat, saying threats of this kind are increasingly common for Jewish lawmakers and contribute to heightened security concerns across Capitol Hill.

In Uplifting News, amid regional tensions a new push to build “Dubai’s new” era is unfolding, with drone activity and economic activity drawing attention as the city’s status as a regional hub continues to attract migrants. Dubai’s economy has surged from about $16 billion in 2000 to roughly $429 billion in 2024, reinforcing its appeal as a resilient economic center that could rebound if needed.
