HEADLINES
Trump says Iran missiles at 21%
Canada launches antisemitism focused advisory council
Ma'apilim tale pits fear against faith
The time is now 1:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In Iranian Retaliation, President Donald Trump told NBC News that Iran’s military has been “totally destroyed” and now retains roughly 21% to 22% of its missile capacity after the latest strikes, saying most drone factories and missile manufacturing areas have been knocked out and that he knows almost to the number how many missiles and drones Tehran still possesses. Separately, footage circulated on social media showing missiles in the skies over Bahrain as Iran’s Revolutionary Guards announced strikes on US bases in the region, and CENTCOM said Iran launched seven missiles toward Kuwait and Bahrain. Across Kuwait, air raid sirens were heard amid ongoing Iranian attacks.
In US Military Role, CENTCOM reported that six missiles were intercepted and a seventh failed before hitting any target as Iran launched toward Kuwait, Bahrain, and the Strait of Hormuz. Earlier, US forces shot down four Iranian one-way attack drones threatening maritime traffic in the Strait and then struck Iranian coastal surveillance radar sites at Garuk, Sirik County, and on Qeshm Island to defend regional security.
In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney announced a Ministerial Advisory Council on Rights, Equality, and Inclusion to guide the government in combating hate, with antisemitism identified as a first priority. The plan has sparked debate among Canadian Jews, with critics arguing the council’s broad mandate is insufficient and expressing concerns about some appointees, while others urge recognizing anti-Zionist extremism as a driver of hostility and shaping how best to address it.
In Uplifting News, the ma'apilim narrative illustrates how belief in destiny can falter in fear or slip into reckless overconfidence, recounting a 40-day scouting mission whose fearful report helped trigger a generation’s wandering and delayed entry into the Land. Joshua’s spies, by contrast, returned with faith and confidence, declaring that the land could be conquered, a contrast that offers a timeless reflection on courage, purpose, and steadfastness in the face of daunting odds.
