HEADLINES
Iran's New Leader Vows Father's Revenge
Russia Hits BRSM-Nafta Fuel Facility Near Pereiaslav
Illouz Quits Likud, Fraying Coalition
The time is now 6:00 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In Iranian Retaliation, Iran's new supreme leader Mojtaba Khamenei has pledged revenge for his father’s death, telling supporters Tehran is committed to avenging those killed in the two wars with the United States and Israel. State media described the revenge campaign as a national demand and a religious mission, with the possibility of support from sympathetic forces around the world. The warning followed days of increasingly explicit assassination threats raised during funeral ceremonies for Ali Khamenei, who was killed in a joint US-Israeli strike, with crowds carrying banners as the rhetoric intensified.
In Regional Impacts, Russian forces struck a fuel-storage facility operated by Ukraine’s BRSM-Nafta near Pereiaslav in the Kyiv region with a one-way attack drone, igniting a major fire that engulfed the site. Ukrainian emergency services said the blaze spread over roughly 2,000 square meters before being brought under control. The strike is part of a broader pattern of Russian attacks targeting BRSM-Nafta’s fuel infrastructure in the region.
In Israeli Domestic Politics, MK Dan Illouz is expected to announce he is leaving Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s ruling Likud Party, according to N12. Illouz’s office did not issue an official statement when asked for comment by The Jerusalem Post, and a political source told the Post that the departure is highly likely to occur soon. This follows MK Yuli Edelstein’s July 3 announcement that he will leave Likud and potentially form a new political path. Both Illouz and Edelstein have been critical of legislation pushed by the haredi parties within the coalition, including the Basic Law: Torah Study and a bill affecting daycare subsidies.
