Israel Today: Ongoing War Report - Update from 2026-05-05 at 20:03
HEADLINES
- CS Anthem exits Hormuz as Freedom paused
- Iranian attacks US forces jeopardize ceasefire
- Israel to supply jet fuel to Germany
The time is now 8:02 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In Operation Lion's Roar, Ben Gurion Airport is packed with US Air Force aerial refueling tankers, and the feeling is the same as on the eve of Rising Lion.
In Iranian Retaliation, a reporter said Iran fired at US forces several times in the last 24 hours and asked what they would need to do to violate the ceasefire. President Trump said, “You’ll find out, because I’ll let you know... They know what to do, and they know what not to do.”
In US Military Role, the CS Anthem chemical tanker exited the Strait of Hormuz on Monday, becoming the second US-flagged vessel known to do so while protected by the US military, with Alliance Fairfax exiting the Gulf earlier. Crowley-Stena Marine Solutions said the CS Anthem has safely completed its transit through the Strait. Three other US-flagged ships remain in the Gulf. CENTCOM said US Navy guided-missile destroyers are operating in the Gulf under a directive called “Project Freedom,” and NBC News, citing two unidentified US officials, reported the two exits. President Trump announced that, at the request of Pakistan and other countries, the tremendous military success achieved during the campaign against Iran has led to a pause of Project Freedom to see whether a final agreement can be finalized and signed; some reports described the pause as short, while others noted it could be indefinite. Marco Rubio said the operation is over—Epic Fury; we are done with that stage of it. The overall posture continues to defend shipping while the pause is evaluated.
In Regional Impacts, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio on Tuesday called a US-proposed UN resolution demanding Iran stop attacks and laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz a test of the United Nations’ utility and urged China and Russia not to veto; talks among Security Council members sought a final draft with potential sanctions and, if Tehran fails to halt attacks, possible force authorizations. Israeli Foreign Minister Gideon Saar condemned Iranian attacks against the United Arab Emirates and urged action to prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons. Rubio also said the Strait of Hormuz does not belong to Iran and they do not have a right to shut it down.
In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Rubio said peace between Israel and Lebanon is achievable but Hezbollah remains a problem, arguing that a Lebanese government capable of going after Hezbollah is essential for any deal. He also stated there is no problem between the Lebanese and Israeli governments and that Israel does not claim land in Lebanon.
In US Policy Concerning Israel, Trump said there is “great progress” toward an Iran deal and paused Project Freedom in Hormuz at the request of Pakistan and other countries. Rubio warned Iran not to test the will of the United States under President Trump. A Rubio briefing moment prompted light exchanges about questions and answers, and another note emphasized that foreign financial actors that enable Iran sanctions evasion will face secondary sanctions. He also reminded that the end of Epic Fury was announced to avoid immediate congressional approval requirements for a future operation.
In Israeli Economy and Business, Israel will reportedly supply jet fuel to Germany amid the Hormuz crisis, with Berlin requesting the fuel and officials citing production surpluses available for export; Foreign Minister Gideon Saar has informed his German counterpart, and both sides are exploring potential cooperation on natural gas supplies.
