US strikes narco terror vessel Eastern Pacific
Shati refugee camp attack footage shocks Gaza
HAYI claims London stabbings linked to Tehran

The time is now 5:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In US Military Role, according to a release from US Southern Command, at the direction of SOUTHCOM Commander General Francis L. Donovan, Joint Task Force Southern Spear conducted a strike on a vessel of a designated terrorist organization operating in the Eastern Pacific Ocean. The release says two narco-terrorists were killed and one survived. Following the strike, SOUTHCOM notified the US Coast Guard to begin search and rescue.

In Regional Impacts, new footage shows the attack on the building in the Shati refugee camp in western Gaza City. Two responses have been recorded.

In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, investigators note that Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiya, known as HAYI, claimed responsibility for stabbings in London and appears to be connected to elements linked to the Iranian regime, with analysts describing it as a form of “gig economy” terrorism tied to Tehran. Separately, the IDF said it struck more than 85 Hezbollah sites in southern Lebanon over the past 24 hours, including weapon storage facilities, launchers, and production structures; an underground site in the Beqaa Valley used for weapon production was targeted, and Hezbollah operatives involved in attacks on Israeli forces were also hit. Earlier incidents left two Israeli soldiers moderately wounded and another severely wounded in drone attacks conducted by Hezbollah.

In US Policy Concerning Israel, Israeli officials say there are still significant gaps between the United States and Iran on nuclear concessions, and there is no breakthrough yet despite some movement, with remarks that political calculations in Washington and domestic issues in the United States are affecting the pace of talks. An ABC News report also notes the United States has not yet received an Iranian response to its proposal for an end-to-war agreement.

In Israeli Domestic Politics, settlers and soldiers compelled Palestinians to exhume a body from a West Bank grave near Sa-Nur; the burial had been approved by the IDF, but settlers objected to the grave’s location, and troops ordered the body moved. The military condemned the harm to the dignity of the dead and said the incident would be reviewed.

In Uplifting News, an encouraging moment from Israel: a fledgling fell into a rainwater drainage pit, and good citizens rescued it safely while the mother waited nearby.
