Israel blasts Norway Holocaust ceremony as anti-Israel
Israeli strikes Hezbollah assets in Nabatieh district
Haniyeh seeks Rafah opening, hostage progress
The time is now 1:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
Israel’s Foreign Ministry condemned the decision of Norway’s prime minister to participate in a Holocaust remembrance ceremony that has been described as turning a memory into an anti-Israel event, saying the act dishonors the victims and especially the Jewish community in Norway who were killed during the Shoah. The ministry stressed that framing such moments in a way that questions Israel’s legitimacy undermines the memory of those who suffered and perished.
On the northern front, Israeli air power carried out strikes in the Nabatieh district of southern Lebanon targeting vehicles and other assets used by Hezbollah operatives involved in efforts to restore military infrastructure. The strikes come as Israeli forces maintain enforcement actions along the border and continue to monitor Hezbollah activity in the region.
Iran imposed 48-hour emergency health and safety restrictions in Tehran after air pollution levels reached the highest red alert on the country’s scale. The measure, designed to protect public health, reflects ongoing environmental concerns that compound regional security considerations in a period of heightened tension.
In Washington, an Israeli official told The New York Times that Tehran is working around the clock to replenish its ballistic missile arsenal, a development viewed in Jerusalem as a potential escalation risk that could affect the calculus of regional deterrence and the timing of any future measures.

The court is expected to address the issue in the coming days, while the investigation into related proceedings continues to unfold.
Operational activity against Hezbollah continued this morning as Israeli forces targeted vehicles along main routes used by the group on the road between the cities of Tyre and Sidon, part of ongoing efforts to disrupt Hezbollah’s ability to rebuild and relocate assets.
Separately, online editorials and state media continue to report on movements within the region, including claims that senior Hezbollah figures have undergone plastic surgery in attempts to disguise their appearances amid potential Israeli airstrikes. The reports, aired by Al Hadath and other outlets, underscore ongoing concerns about the organization’s leadership and its capacity to operate under surveillance.
