Trump warns limited Iran strike risks war
IDF probe uncovers Gaza friendly fire failures
Bondi Beach antisemitism inquiry launched in Australia

The time is now 7:01 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In the conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, President Trump has grown increasingly frustrated with what aides describe as the limits of military leverage against Iran, with military planners telling the President that any strike on Tehran's assets would almost certainly not be a singular, decisive blow, and that limited strikes could open the door to a wider confrontation that risks drawing the United States into a protracted conflict in the Middle East. Trump has warned that if no deal is reached, it will be a very bad day for that country and its people, and he defended remarks about General Daniel Caine, saying reports that he is against war with Iran are fake news and that Caine would lead the campaign if ordered, describing him as a great fighter who knows how to win. An unlikely figure has reportedly emerged as a major voice of opposition to renewed strikes on Iran, with Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Daniel Caine portrayed as a counterpoint to a large-scale campaign, highlighting tensions inside the military command over the path forward.

In the Disputed Territories (Gaza, Judea and Samaria, East Jerusalem), an IDF probe into a fatal friendly-fire incident in Gaza finds serious failures in briefings, firing approvals and procedures, and Chief of staff Zamir is set to receive findings with recommendations that could involve dismissals of Paratroopers Brigade officers.

In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, Australia will begin a government-backed inquiry into antisemitism following the Bondi Beach attack, with the Royal Commission led by retired judge Virginia Bell to consider antisemitism and social cohesion and to report findings by December this year; the process will be guided by terms of reference set to explain how the inquiry will proceed, and Prime Minister Anthony Albanese had previously resisted calls for a Royal Commission, saying the process would take years.

In Israeli Domestic Politics, a government source told Maariv that tonight’s vote showed the draft law would not pass in the plenary. Separately, the Jerusalem District Court shortened Tuesday’s session in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s trial and canceled Wednesday’s hearing, citing the need for Netanyahu to attend a Shin Bet conference and to prepare for the upcoming visit of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi to Israel.

In Uplifting News, former hostage Eliya Cohen shared new footage from the helicopter that transported him to Beilinson Hospital last year after he was freed from Hamas captivity, Cohen having been held hostage for 505 days.
