Turkey Calls Israel a Central Threat to Region
Hamas Leader Killed in Israeli Airstrike in Lebanon

The time is now 02:00 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

Israeli military operations are intensifying in the northern Gaza Strip, specifically in the Shuja'iyya area, as the Israel Defense Forces aim to expand their control and security perimeter. Reports indicate that Israeli forces have neutralized several militants and destroyed terrorist infrastructure, including a command and control facility used by Hamas operatives for planning attacks. Concurrently, efforts are being made to facilitate the evacuation of civilians from the conflict zone to ensure their safety.

Tensions between Israel and Turkey are escalating, with the Turkish Foreign Ministry recently declaring Israel a central threat to regional security. This statement follows renewed fighting in Gaza and Israeli airstrikes in Syria and Lebanon. Sources from Turkey suggest that there are agreements in place for the establishment of Turkish military bases in Syria, which further complicates the regional security landscape.

In Lebanon, an important Hamas figure was reportedly killed in an Israeli airstrike, marking a significant development in the ongoing conflict. Meanwhile, Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations, Danny Danon, criticized the UN Security Council during a recent session, presenting recordings of protests in Gaza against Hamas. He accused the Council of silencing voices that oppose Hamas's actions.

Domestically, the Israeli government is under scrutiny as legal proceedings continue against officials involved in a scandal related to foreign influence and media manipulation. The police are seeking to extend the detention of key figures in this case, indicating ongoing investigations into allegations of corruption.

In a related development, reports from Yemen indicate that the US military has killed a high-ranking Houthi official, reflecting the broader implications of regional conflicts on US operations.

These developments highlight the complexities of the situation as multiple fronts remain active, with Israel's military operations against Hamas, Hezbollah, and other regional actors continuing to evolve amidst international scrutiny and domestic challenges.
