HEADLINES
Larijani Meets Oman Foreign Minister in Muscat
IDF hits Beit Jinn Islamic Jihad warehouse
Netanyahu seeks comprehensive Iran deal in Washington
The time is now 6:02 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In the conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Secretary of Iran’s Supreme National Security Council Ali Larijani met in Muscat with Omani Foreign Minister Sayyid Badr bin Hamad Al Busaidi, signaling ongoing regional security discussions. A US general praised Lebanon’s discovery of a Hezbollah tunnel, saying dismantling tunnels used by non-state actors to store weapons, missiles and attack drones promotes peace and stability in Lebanon and across the region. In southern Syria, IDF forces under Division 210 conducted a nighttime operation in the Beit Jinn area, locating and destroying a weapons warehouse tied to the Islamic Jihad movement, seizing firearms, mines and communications gear. Ahead of a White House meeting with President Trump, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is traveling to Washington with a message that Israel opposes a narrowly focused Iran deal and that any future agreement must be comprehensive, covering not only enrichment limits but also Tehran’s ballistic-missile program and its regional proxies. Meanwhile, Iran’s security chief Hatami warned that Iranian forces are at a high level of readiness and that Israel “understands only the language of force.”
In the Disputed Territories (Gaza, Judea and Samaria, East Jerusalem), a terrorist who crossed the Yellow Line in northern Gaza and approached Israeli troops, posing an imminent threat, was eliminated by the IDF. Indonesia said a proposed multinational peacekeeping force for Gaza could total about 20,000 troops, with Indonesia estimating it could contribute up to 8,000, though deployment terms and areas of operation have not been agreed. Separately, Israeli forces carried out a direct elimination in Gaza of two Hamas terrorists riding a motorcycle.
In US Policy Concerning Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu heads to Washington to press President Trump against the Iran deal as talks between Tehran and the United States begin. Ahead of an early White House meeting, Netanyahu said he would present Israel’s core principles on Iran, and his trip underscores the ongoing effort to shape the evolving understandings in Washington. He is en route to the capital, with reports indicating he has boarded the Zion Wing for departure.
In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, the BBC issued a correction after reporting that there were multiple Holocaust events, apologizing and noting that all references to the Holocaust should be capitalized, amid backlash from Jewish groups over the phrasing.
In Israeli Domestic Politics, a controversy surrounding a video used by Naftali Bennett in a Knesset appearance drew criticism from a MK who called it a PR stunt and tied it to concerns over the cost of living, as Prime Minister Netanyahu’s travel to Washington was reported and the Prime Minister was described as boarding the Zion Wing for departure. The session also reflected broader political maneuvering as Netanyahu’s movements are tracked and discussed in the run-up to international diplomacy.
In Israeli Economy and Business, Tel Aviv’s market scene is described as exceptionally affordable by a local observer, who contrasts it with high living costs and notes a shift toward a tourist-driven atmosphere, with visitors and dining options changing the local dynamic and impacting everyday spending.
In Uplifting News, researchers report the discovery of what is believed to be the world’s oldest sewn animal hide, dating to the Ice Age and dated between roughly 11,700 and 12,900 years ago, found in Oregon caves and part of a broader collection studied by a consortium of universities.
