Iran fires missiles as sirens hit again
Three IDF soldiers seriously wounded in Lebanon
Indonesian UN peacekeeper killed near Adchit al-Qusayr

The time is now 3:02 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, Iran fired additional missiles toward southern Israel, triggering a fourth round of sirens across the region. The Home Front Command said restrictions will remain in place through Saturday after a situational assessment. Sirens were heard again in southern Israel a short time ago.

In US Military Role, the United States is preparing the next phase in its approach to Iran. Reports mention a truck driver lightly injured by shrapnel from a downed drone in the north, alleged strikes on Tehran, and sirens in the north and south, as the Knesset approved the budget. A senior IDF official described Iran as presenting a clear challenge in the regional security environment.

In Regional Impacts, UNIFIL says a peacekeeper from Indonesia was killed when a projectile exploded at a position near Adchit al-Qusayr in southern Lebanon; another peacekeeper was critically injured, and three others were wounded by indirect artillery fire. UNIFIL said the origin of the projectile is unknown and an investigation has been launched. The mission notes that all UNIFIL troops are set to withdraw from southern Lebanon by the end of 2026. Separately, Afghanistan and Pakistan have traded heavy fire after a pause, with artillery and heavy weapons hitting locations in Afghanistan's Kunar province and Pakistan's Bajur district; at least one person was killed and 16 wounded, including women and children. Pakistan said it did not target civilian locations, and Islamabad hosted regional discussions on de-escalation with the possibility of hosting talks with the United States and Iran in coming days.

In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, three IDF soldiers were seriously wounded by an anti-tank missile and a drone in southern Lebanon as forces advanced toward the Litani River; three additional soldiers were moderately wounded, including in an operational incident, with five soldiers killed in Lebanon since the war began.

In Israeli Domestic Politics, the IDF announced the Netzah Yehuda battalion will be suspended, not disbanded, following the CNN crew incident. The suspension covers the entire battalion rather than a single company, and the unit will be sent for reeducation on IDF values to address reputational concerns. The unit has faced prior incidents in recent years. Separately, Ilan Ron, the head of the Finance Ministry, resigned his post moments after budget approval.
