The time is now 11:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Regional Impacts, the Israel Defense Forces said initial alerts were triggered over the intrusion of a hostile aircraft in the Mishgav area, with details under review. In Lebanon, the Health Ministry reported 2,951 dead and 8,988 wounded since March 2 as a result of Israeli aggression.

In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, the United Arab Emirates sought to coordinate a Gulf-wide response to Iran's missile, rocket, and drone attacks during the recent war, but neighboring states declined to join. President Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan held multiple calls with leaders, including Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, as discussions with the United States and Israel on deterrence progressed. The move strained ties between the UAE and Saudi Arabia, and the Trump administration was aware of the proposal and tried to persuade Gulf partners to participate, according to sources. MBZ argued that the GCC was founded to coordinate regional security, but officials conveyed that it was not their war to fight.

In US Policy Concerning Israel, former president Trump softened his tone on Iran and endorsed a 20-year suspension of Iran’s uranium enrichment program if Tehran makes a real commitment, while signaling there is no plan for an immediate return to war.

In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, a sweeping investigation by Fox News Digital highlights a global network behind hundreds of anti-Israel protests. The report says more than 425 organizations across 39 countries are involved in organizing or promoting Nakba 78 demonstrations marking Israel’s founding. More than 700 protests, rallies, and campus actions were planned worldwide, spanning the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia, and the Middle East. The network includes radical left-wing groups, Islamist organizations, communist movements, pro-Palestinian advocacy groups, and anti-Western coalitions, working under a shared anti-Israel agenda. The financial infrastructure behind many of these groups is estimated at nearly $1 billion annually.
