HEADLINES1. Israel Strikes Tehran Radar in Symbolic Showdown2. Iran's Nuclear Sites Destroyed in Major US Attack3. Iran Launches Missile at U.S. Base Amid TensionsThe time is now 08:00 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.At 8:00 a.m., tensions remain high across the Middle East as recent events underscore a volatile and complex situation involving Israel, Iran, and their respective allies. Reports confirm that Israel conducted a targeted strike on Iranian military infrastructure, specifically an advanced radar site in northern Tehran. Israeli officials indicate the operation was intended as a symbolic response to Iran's violation of a recent ceasefire agreement, which Iran itself has denied. The strike followed heightened alerts as Israeli aircraft awaited orders over Iranian skies, with military sources suggesting the attack was limited and designed to demonstrate resolve without escalating into full-scale conflict.Meanwhile, Iran has experienced a series of dramatic developments. There was a reported earthquake in Tehran, and reports of explosions in various locations north of the capital, including what appears to be an attack on a military radar site. Iran’s state media acknowledge the incident but have downplayed its significance. Iranian authorities have also claimed that their missile forces were accidentally fired, a statement that has drawn skepticism from international observers, especially given Iran’s previous rhetoric about retaliating for Israeli strikes on its nuclear facilities.The nuclear front remains a critical concern. Israeli journalist Amit Segal has confirmed that a recent US military strike has destroyed Iran’s centrifuge facilities at Natanz, Esfahan, and Fordow, with most of Iran’s enriched uranium stockpiles believed to be buried beneath the rubble. The operation utilized stealth bombers and bunker-buster missiles, with American forces reportedly executing a coordinated attack that inflicted significant damage, effectively setting back Iran’s nuclear capabilities. US President Donald Trump has publicly characterized the attack as a necessary, albeit limited, response to Iran’s nuclear defiance, emphasizing that no American casualties occurred and that Iran's response has been weak.Simultaneously, reports indicate ongoing missile exchanges. Iran launched a missile attack on a US military base in Qatar, which was intercepted by Qatari defenses, and Iran’s state media claimed the attack was a response to earlier strikes on its nuclear sites. Trump publicly thanked Iran for giving early warning, describing the missile fire as symbolic and largely ineffective. He also warned Iran that any further missile attacks would face a stronger US response, and he expressed concern over conflicting messages from Israeli and American officials regarding the status of the ceasefire.Israeli officials are reported to be on high alert, with some sources suggesting that Israeli aircraft are back on the ground awaiting further instructions, amid international calls for de-escalation. US President Trump has held conversations with Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu, urging caution and emphasizing that Israel should refrain from further strikes on Iran, especially following a recent missile violation that Iran claimed was accidental. The White House has indicated that Israel’s response will be limited and symbolic, aimed at maintaining the fragile ceasefire.International reactions range from cautious optimism to concern. Russia and China have expressed hope that the ceasefire holds, while Saudi Arabia and European nations have called for restraint. Oil markets have responded positively, with prices declining as fears of broader conflict diminish temporarily.In Israel, the stock market remains buoyant, and the Israeli shekel retains strength against foreign currencies, reflecting investor confidence amid regional stability concerns. However, the situation remains precarious, with military and diplomatic channels still active and the potential for escalation hanging over the region.As of now, the overall picture indicates a momentary pause, but with underlying tensions still unresolved. The global community watches closely, aware that any miscalculation could reignite hostilities across this tinderbox of geopolitics.This is your morning update.
