HEADLINESIran missiles target Israeli soil, red alertsUS destroys Iranian mine-laying vessels near HormuzBoeing inks 5,000 air bombs for IsraelThe time is now 10:01 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, red alert sirens sounded across central Israel as missiles fired by Iran continued to target Israeli territory. The alerts expanded to the Sharon region and to parts of the Dan and Shomron regions as additional launches were reported. The Israeli military said missiles were launched from Iran toward Israeli soil and that defense systems were actively working to intercept the threats. The Home Front Command issued guidance instructing residents to seek shelter in protected spaces when a warning is in effect and to stay there until further notice, exiting only with explicit instruction. The situation remains tense as authorities monitor incoming fire and assess the impact.In US Military Role, the Pentagon said it eliminated 16 Iranian mine-laying vessels near the Strait of Hormuz and targeted mine storage facilities, in what officials described as a step to deny Iran use of the waterway. President Donald Trump warned that any mines laid by Iran in the Hormuz Strait must be removed immediately and said the United States had previously destroyed 10 inactive mine-laying vessels. He added that if Tehran does not remove the mines, it would face military consequences, noting that Washington would apply the same technology used against drug traffickers to permanently eliminate any vessel attempting to mine the strait. Separately, a Fox News report described the day as the most intensive round of strikes since the start of the conflict, reflecting a heightened US campaign against Iran.In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, Trump's nominee for a senior State Department role withdrew from consideration amid controversy over past statements about Jewish people and on white identity, with Republican opposition and a lack of unanimous GOP support cited as the reason. Jeremy Carl thanked the president and the secretary of state for their backing but said the needed unanimous support from GOP senators did not materialize. In another incident, two Israeli American men, Lior Zeevi and Daniel Levy, were attacked outside a restaurant in San Jose, California, while speaking Hebrew; they were treated at a hospital and released. The San Jose Police Department is investigating the incident as a possible hate crime, and local officials condemned the attack.In Israeli Economy and Business, Boeing has signed a $289 million contract to deliver as many as 5,000 new air-launched smart bombs to Israel. Deliveries are not expected to begin for 36 months. The contract is not tied to the ongoing US-Israeli air strikes on Iran. The Small Diameter Bomb is a guided munition that Israel’s jets can deliver at targets more than 40 miles away. Last year, Boeing secured an $8.6 billion contract to produce F-15 jets for Israel as part of a broader defense sales package. The United States has also expedited the sale of more than 20,000 bombs to Israel in a separate arrangement, valued at around $650 million, with additional munitions purchases of about $298 million expected via direct commercial sales.In Uplifting News, US President Donald Trump posthumously awarded Master Sergeant Roddie Edmonds the Medal of Honor last week, recognizing his courage during World War II. Edmonds protected more than 200 Jewish Americans at the Stalag IXA prisoner of war camp, refusing to identify them to Nazi authorities. His heroism has also been acknowledged by Yad Vashem as Righteous Among the Nations, a distinction for which he remains the only American soldier honored. The presentation was highlighted by the Jewish Foundation for the Righteous, survivors and descendants of the camp, and Edmonds’ family at a White House ceremony. The story is also told in the documentary Footsteps of My Father.Thank you for tuning in to this Israel Today: Ongoing War Report update.I'm Noa Levi.
