Lebanese toll tops 40 dead, 100 wounded
Hormuz Strait: 20 vessels in 24 hours
Indiana imam calls for suicide bombings

The time is now 9:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Regional Impacts, authorities report maritime activity along the Strait of Hormuz over the past day. Over the last 24 hours, nearly 20 vessels have transited the strait, with five using the US-established safe route through Omani waters, as seen on MarineTraffic. The remaining traffic is following the Iranian traffic separation scheme.

In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Lebanese sources say the toll in Lebanon today from Israeli strikes has surpassed 40 dead and more than 100 wounded, with the number of air strikes approaching 100. Israeli fighter jets earlier struck targets in the village of Kanarit in the Sidon District, far from the "hot zone" in Nabatieh.

In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, an imam in Indiana was caught on video calling for suicide bombings, while a man in the audience wore "Palestine" gear. The report notes that commentators such as Tucker Carlson and JD Vance are focused on bashing Israel, but ignore this growing threat.

In Uplifting News, a father-and-son trip to the 2026 FIFA World Cup in Los Angeles became an unforgettable night as the USMNT delivered a big win and Iranian protesters outside the stadium drew attention with competing flags. The World Cup will be hosted in the United States, alongside Mexico and Canada, for the first time in more than 30 years. The author recalls planning to attend the opening match, the United States vs Paraguay on June 12, and notes that the US squad includes goalkeeper Matt Turner, a Jewish athlete, among its players.
