The time is now 8:01 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Operation Lion's Roar, the United Arab Emirates conducted dozens of airstrikes against Iran as part of the war, coordinating with the United States and Israel using intelligence from both sides. The strikes targeted Iranian energy infrastructure, including operations on Qeshm and Abu Musa islands in the Strait of Hormuz, Bandar Abbas, and the Lavan island oil refinery, and at least one strike on the Asaluyeh petrochemical complex carried out with Israeli involvement. The campaign drew international condemnation.

In US Military Role, US Central Command has notified mariners and airmen in the area north of the Musandam Peninsula in the Strait of Hormuz of impending dangerous military activities to address Iranian mines, according to a notice from the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations center.

In Israeli Domestic Politics, Israel Police’s Traffic Division issued over 4,000 tickets on Thursday as part of a nationwide enforcement drive against dangerous driving, with hundreds of officers, patrol cars, motorcycles, and volunteers taking part and digital enforcement tools identifying offenses such as distracted driving, cellphone use, and speeding. Drivers were captured on camera for offenses, including a case where a driver was stopped for driving with a revoked license, was arrested, and had his vehicle impounded; another incident on Highway 6 involved a driver using a cellphone with a child improperly secured in the vehicle. Among the thousands of tickets issued, authorities highlighted the breadth of offenses and the role of digital enforcement. Also in Jerusalem, Italian author Erri De Luca told a gathering at the International Writers Festival that he is prepared to lose everything for his convictions as he spoke about Israel, Hebrew, and Zionism. Separately, red alert sirens were heard in Northern Israel, underscoring ongoing security tensions.

In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, US prosecutors say a defendant linked to Iran orchestrated a string of attacks on Jewish targets as part of an Iranian psychological warfare campaign targeting Jewish sites in Europe and potentially plots against Jewish targets in the United States. The European attacks included a synagogue explosion in Belgium, arson at a synagogue in the Netherlands, a bomb at a Jewish school in Amsterdam, and the torching of four Hatzolah ambulances in London along with a car fire in Antwerp in March, with the group Harakat Ashab al-Yamin al-Islamiya, known as HAYI, claiming credit. Investigations connect Iran to the European attacks and to plots against US targets, with an indictment naming Mohammad Baqer Saad Dawood Al-Saadi, an alleged member of Kataeb Hezbollah.
