Trump Threatens Iran Deal Or Annihilation
Finland Closes Helsinki Airport Over Drones
IDF Destroys Hezbollah Launcher in Southern Lebanon

The time is now 3:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Iranian Retaliation, President Trump warned he is not going to be “much more patient” with Iran’s leadership and said they can either make a deal or “get annihilated,” arguing the United States will not permit Iran to develop or obtain a nuclear weapon. He suggested the enriched uranium Iran already possesses should be addressed rather than left entombed after previous strikes against Iran’s nuclear program, and noted that Iran has been building up since the ceasefire took effect. A separate report reiterates that Trump, in an interview on Chinese soil, said Iran’s military destruction would continue.

In Regional Impacts, Finland announced this morning the temporary closure of Helsinki International Airport following the appearance of suspicious drones in the capital’s skies.

In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, the Israeli Defense Forces said overnight it destroyed the launcher from which Hezbollah fired rockets toward Israeli territory last night, with the launcher located in the Zabdin area in southern Lebanon. Alongside the launcher, several buildings used by the group for military purposes and to coordinate attacks against Israeli forces and civilians were struck. The IDF also conducted additional strikes in southern Lebanon.

In US Policy Concerning Israel, after talks with China’s Xi, the United States president said Iran must reopen the Strait of Hormuz and abandon its nuclear ambitions as he seeks Beijing’s backing to end a war disrupting global energy supplies, while also stressing that patience with Iran is running out; Prime Minister Netanyahu said the campaign is not yet over.
