Israel seeks regime change in Iran war
Iranian hackers breach Hebrew Academy amid cyberattack
US strikes Iranian missile launcher after cookoff
The time is now 7:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, defense sources say regime change is not a military goal, but the IDF has sought to create conditions that might enable such a shift if Iran’s domestic opposition can mobilize in sufficient numbers. The military emphasizes that action alone would not guarantee change, and public messages from leadership have fluctuated between urging immediate upheaval and describing regime change as a long-term possibility. Officials say the war should be viewed in the context of a limited mission, with success measured by progress toward those defined aims.
Iranian hackers breach Hebrew Academy website amid massive Israel cyber assault. Iran-linked operators hacked the Academy of the Hebrew Language site, leaving a message claiming Hebrew will no longer be needed, and the breach comes within a broader wave of cyberattacks aimed at disrupting Israeli websites and financial services, which Imperva data says peaked at about 1.2 million requests per second.
Still ‘major challenges’ ahead in Iran war, says IDF chief of staff. The IDF notes it has dismantled most of Iran’s internal security forces’ key assets in Ilam province, but senior officers warn that major challenges lie ahead in the broader conflict.
טקסי הלוויות הבכירים האיראנים שחוסלו על יד ישראל בהם: מפקד משמרות המהפכה מחמד פאקפור ועלי שמח'אני, יועצו המדיני הבכיר של עלי ח'אמינאי. The funeral ceremonies for senior Iranian figures killed in the conflict are taking place, reflecting the ongoing toll of the fighting on Tehran’s leadership and its circles.
Roughly half of Iranian missiles launched at Israel carried cluster warheads, army says. The military notes that recent launches have tended to be one or a few missiles at a time rather than large, coordinated barrages, and that about half of those missiles reportedly carried cluster warheads.
In Iranian Retaliation, Iran's General Staff says one of the country’s banks was attacked last night by the United States and Israel, and in response, economic centers and banks linked to the US and Israel in the area are now considered legitimate targets.
In US Military Role, footage has emerged of an American aircraft striking a loaded Iranian ballistic missile launcher at the entrance of its shelter, triggering a catastrophic missile cookoff. The US Central Command also released a new video showing the destruction of missile launchers and drones as part of ongoing operations.
In Regional Impacts, a regional reshaping is described in an opinion piece that foresees a Middle East map centered on Israel, with Israel at the core of regional stability and close US-Israel coordination influencing developments, while Erdogan in Turkey watches closely as power dynamics shift. Separately, China’s foreign ministry says Beijing does not agree with attacks on Gulf states and condemns indiscriminate attacks on civilians and non-military targets.
In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, targeted elimination outside Beirut’s Dahieh district, in Aisha Bakkar, involved four missiles last night, highlighting ongoing clashes with Iran’s broader network across the region.
In US Policy Concerning Israel, the Iranian Head of the National Security Council, Ali Larijani, says the US president relayed a ceasefire request through an Omani mediator, but Iran’s position is that it will not accept negotiations as long as Israel exists.
In Israeli Domestic Politics, a political-media uproar surrounds allegations of a leak regarding coverage of the Iran strike, with commentator Yakov Bardugo raising questions about how preparations were v
