Iranian strike hits Kuwaiti base injuring Americans
Israel pounds Hezbollah after rocket salvo
Iranian hard-liners fear betrayal in US talks

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 Iranian Retaliation, an Iranian ballistic missile strike on a Kuwaiti air base in the past 24 hours caused minor injuries to several Americans and seriously damaged two MQ-9 Reaper strike drones.

In Regional Impacts, takeoffs and landings at Munich International Airport were briefly halted this morning due to identifying a suspicious UAV.

In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, the IDF said it destroyed a launcher from which Hezbollah fired rockets toward northern Israel last night. More Israeli strikes on Hezbollah targets in southern Lebanon followed. A Hebrew-language report said Hezbollah reduced its use of explosive drones yesterday to three incidents, a sharp drop from nine on May 27, thirteen on May 26, and eleven on May 25. Al-Akhbar, the Lebanese newspaper aligned with Hezbollah, reported that Israeli forces are attempting to gain control at three points beyond the Litani: in the Bofor area near Yahmar al-Shkif, in the Dbín area near Balat, and on the Ali al-Tahar ridge and the hills that overlook Nabatieh, with the village Zotar noted as nearby. Fifteen rockets were launched from Lebanon into Israel overnight; all were intercepted except one, which caused significant damage, and hundreds of thousands of Israelis spent the night in shelters. They call this a ceasefire.

In US Policy Concerning Israel, Iran’s hard-liners smell betrayal in US deal talks as Washington and Tehran inch toward a possible agreement to end the war, with vocal factions in Iran staging rallies and pressuring the new supreme leader to derail negotiations.

In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, Why Jewish tourists no longer feel safe being visibly Jewish in London - opinion discusses concerns about safety for visibly Jewish travelers in London, including a London Luton Airport complaint about security procedures that require headwear removal and scanning, and reflections on balancing heightened security with taking trips to London with Israeli grandchildren.

In Uplifting News, Former Gaza hostage, October 7 survivors receive therapeutic Healing Ink tattoos as part of a program by Art Over Hate. The Healing Ink initiative aims to help survivors reclaim agency through tattooing, described by CEO Craig Dershowitz as a reclamation of body, mind, and life story. Tattoo artist Ben Gida noted that tattoos can transform a scar into art that carries meaning, identity, and personal power; participants include survivors wounded during the massacre and those bearing psychological scars, with Itamar Gilead among those who fought off a Hamas attacker.
