Dahiya Attack Three Explosions Nabatieh Struck
Capitol Hill Faith Leaders Back Israel Security
West Bank Bezek Tamun Settlements Approved

The time is now 4:01 AM 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, reports from the region outline a series of cross-border actions. There is a report of an attack in the Dahiya district tonight at exactly 20:07, with three explosions observed and one response noted. Israel's forces are striking Nabatieh, a Hezbollah stronghold in southern Lebanon. In the western sector, the village of Chama, about six kilometers north of the border, has seen the Israeli flag raised. A targeted Israeli strike on a vehicle on the Habbouch road in southern Lebanon eliminated two Hezbollah terrorists.

In the US Policy Concerning Israel, faith leaders are coordinating a broad push on Capitol Hill. They held more than 100 meetings to bolster support for Israel, combat antisemitism and seek stronger security protections for houses of worship. Across the Atlantic, President Donald Trump said the military campaign against Iran will end quickly and Tehran will not obtain nuclear weapons, arguing that the effort is necessary and understood by many Americans.

In Israeli Domestic Politics, settler leaders are moving ahead with plans for new West Bank communities. Bezek and Tamun, approved under a cabinet decision in December, are part of a broader push to strengthen Israel’s presence in strategic areas overlooking the Jordan Valley ahead of the next election.

In Uplifting News, Hapoel Tel Aviv stayed alive in the Euroleague quarterfinals by beating Real Madrid Baloncesto 76-69, with Elijah Bryant starring as the Reds forced a 2-1 series and set up another decisive Game 4 back in Bulgaria on Thursday. Also featured is a reflection on victory: while Israel has weakened adversaries and struck targets, many Israelis still do not feel victory. There is no clear end, no full return to normal, and no final sense of security—an invisible front that sits between facts and fatigue, strength and uncertainty, promise and patience.
