HEADLINES
B-52 crash on base kills eight aboard
Hezbollah rockets spark clashes as IDF strikes
Temple Israel security stops attacker earns award
The time is now 9:01 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In US Military Role, several US Air Force KC-135 Stratotankers and KC-46A Pegasus are active near the Strait of Hormuz, along with a US Navy P-8A Poseidon maritime intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance aircraft. The presence underscores ongoing US air and maritime activity in the region. Separately, the US Air Force has confirmed that eight people were on board for a test flight when the B-52 crashed on base; the crash was not survivable, and the incident is under investigation. In another incident, a US Marine Corps F/A-18 Hornet crashed into a hillside near Rimrock Lake, Washington on Saturday; the pilot ejected safely and was transported to a hospital; the Marine Corps said the cause is under investigation, and mishap investigations can take several months.
In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, fighting in Lebanon remained active as Hezbollah fired rockets at Israeli troops in southern Lebanon and launched an anti-tank missile and mortars in several incidents; air defenses intercepted the rockets and there were no injuries reported in Israel. The IDF said it struck Hezbollah operatives deemed a threat to troops and reported spotting militants approaching IDF soldiers in vehicles before acting. Lebanon’s border authorities and UNIFIL noted a general easing of violence, with UN observers citing a decrease in clashes.
In Uplifting News, the security team at Temple Israel in Michigan has received the Department of Justice's Hometown Hero Award for stopping a Hezbollah-inspired attacker during a terror attack targeting the Jewish community. Federal officials said the team's swift actions protected congregants, including children and teachers, and prevented further loss of life. Isaac Mizrahi, the Jewish fashion designer and television personality, has been named creative director at large at Target, where he will advise on product design, mentor Target's design teams and help develop new partnerships.
