Israel hits Tehran in massive airstrikes
Iran strikes Bahrain warns of Hezbollah escalation
IDF hits Hezbollah launcher as clashes flare

The time is now 8:02 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Operation Lion's Roar, the Israeli Air Force has launched another massive wave of strikes against the Islamic regime in Tehran.

In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, sirens sounded across northern Israel amid a missile attack from Iran.

In Iranian Retaliation, Iran fired missiles at Manama, Bahrain, hitting a residential high-rise and killing at least one person with several injured; an Iranian air force commander warned of heavier missiles, while officials say retaliation has begun and a second warning may not come, and the new mood inside the Revolutionary Guards is tense as authorities report cities not reopening this week and a broader escalation involving Hezbollah with rockets within 250 kilometers of central areas.

In US Military Role, the US president described the Iran war as possibly ending very soon with the assault deemed "very complete," while warning of potential future strikes on Iran's electrical grid if oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz are disrupted, and in separate remarks he asserted that Iran has sunk 51 ships and that its missile capability has fallen to about 10%, while saying Iran seeks nuclear weapons and has rejected offers of unlimited free fuel.

In Regional Impacts, a Reuters/Ipsos poll finds most Americans expect gasoline prices to rise in coming months and many foresee a protracted conflict, with 67% predicting higher prices and 60% expecting extended US involvement; 29% approve of the strikes.

In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, sirens sounded across northern Israel as Hezbollah rockets and drones attacked from Lebanon, and about ten minutes later the IDF struck the launcher used to fire those rockets; at the same time Syria's army said shells fired from Lebanon landed near the town of Serayya on the Damascus countryside, and Hezbollah forces are reinforcing the Syria-Lebanon border as authorities monitor the situation and weigh potential actions.
