Iran missiles trigger red alert across Israel
Elderly Tel Aviv woman critically injured
Jerusalem police quell Tomb of Kings incident

The time is now 10:01 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, unconfirmed Iranian reports say a targeted elimination occurred earlier in the region around the city of Qom. Iran later reported explosions near Mehrabad airport in western Tehran, with alarms in the center and north as searches continue at the attack site. In Israel, authorities warned of further launches from Iran and reported red alert conditions as missiles were fired, with some interceptions confirmed by defense systems. The situation prompted additional anticipated alerts in areas identified as Beqa’a, Lachish, and the Shfel Yehuda corridor, and a third wave of sirens swept central Israel within minutes as residents were urged to seek shelter. BREAKING: Red alert sirens sound in central Israel as the Iranian regime continues to fire missiles.

In Regional Impacts, an elderly woman, about 90 years old, was seriously injured while making her way to a shelter in Tel Aviv and was transported to Ichilov Hospital in critical condition after losing consciousness. Paramedics treated her at the scene and she was taken to hospital in an unconscious state with a head injury. Across the center, a third wave of sirens sounded within minutes, and authorities indicated that people could exit from protected spaces as the immediate danger shifted in some areas. In parallel, authorities noted ongoing searches in the central region and warned of additional alerts as the situation evolved. A launch aimed at Jordan was reported as scheduled for the near term, with further sirens and alerts expected in the coming minutes and hours after more than 36 hours without a volley from Iran toward the center.

In US Policy Concerning Israel, former president Donald Trump told Axios he initially feared that a radio message from a downed US airman in Iran could be an Iranian trap, saying the message sounded like something a Muslim would say, while a defense official said the exact wording was reported as “God is good.” Trump noted that the rescue operation confirmed the airman was alive and was found in a mountain crevice after an extensive search, adding that thousands of adversaries had been involved in the pursuit. Separately, Prime Minister Netanyahu expressed appreciation for Israel’s role and support in the events as they unfolded.

In Israeli Domestic Politics, police intervened as about 100 people attempted to enter a private compound near the Tomb of the Kings in Jerusalem. One person was arrested, and three officers were lightly injured as crowd-control measures were deployed to restore public order at the site, which is historically significant and had previously been under French administration.
