      HEADLINESAraghchi number leaked as Iranian threat escalatesRafah reopening risks Hamas rebuild after warUSS Delbert D Black arrives in GulfThe time is now 3:01 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.In the conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Iranian opposition activist Omid Dana revealed the mobile phone number of Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, accompanying a threatening message: “I sent a message to Araghchi’s mobile phone… We are closer to you than your jugular vein. Tick tock.” The disclosure comes amid heightened tensions and covert messaging between Tehran and its critics. Separately, a Washington Post report cites a veteran Iranian diplomat who said Iran hides missiles in the mountains and that such capabilities cannot be reached or struck easily, underscoring concerns about Iran’s weapons program and the challenges of assessing its true readiness.In the Disputed Territories (Gaza, Judea and Samaria, East Jerusalem), Yoaz Hendel, head of the Reservists’ Party and a former communications minister, warned that reopening Gaza’s Rafah Border Crossing could create an “open border” for Hamas to rebuild after the war, as the crossing reopened to pedestrian traffic for the first time in a year under a limited Israeli-monitored arrangement with Egypt and oversight from the European Union and COGAT. Hendel argued the move signals a broader border opening, potentially strengthening Hamas’s thesis of control as Egypt’s role grows and technocrats are brought in as a cover. Separately, Israeli forces completed the dedicated screening complex known as Ragavim at Rafah to tighten security checks, verifying entrants against approved lists and conducting thorough bag checks. In ongoing Gaza security operations, initial reports indicated IDF troops opened fire with machine guns toward suspicious targets in the Jabalia area.In US Policy Concerning Israel, US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee said any military action against Iran would be closely coordinated with Jerusalem, stressing that a strike decision had not been made, and that President Trump “hopes for the best outcome” and would pursue a deal if possible. He warned that if Iran escalates, “all bets are off,” but for now, Israelis should remain vigilant and carry on with daily life, noting the longstanding security partnership and the need for policy alignment. Also reported, sources said the American guided-missile destroyer USS Delbert D. Black arrived in the Gulf of Eilat, reflecting ongoing US military presence in the region.In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, a German-Israeli IDF sniper is suing The Guardian and several German papers for publishing his photo and naming him in connection with a war-crimes article, actions he says were false. His lawyer contends the defendant was not present, and that the publication identified him as a German-Israeli citizen “C.” and published his full name and image without confirmation from those involved. The case frames a broader conversation about misidentification in war-crimes reporting and the impact of media coverage on individuals’ lives.In Uplifting News, Keshet Neev is highlighted for forging a journalism career in Israel after a chance encounter on an airline flight with a member of The Jerusalem Post’s Breaking News Desk. Neev later secured a position with the paper and has become a valued member of the newsroom, contributing to coverage and morale. She maintains a regular presence on Thursdays, known as “Keshet Thursdays,” and her story illustrates how persistence and opportunity can shape a path in journalism.Thank you for tuning in to this Israel Today: Ongoing War Report update.I'm Noa Levi.

      HEADLINESIran warns war disaster, possible US dealRafah crossing reopens under tight Israeli limitsHostages families accuse coordinator of deceptionThe time is now 2:02 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.In the conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, tensions and competing narratives continue to shape the regional outlook. An opinion piece argues against dialogue with the Tehran regime, describing it as illegitimate, malign, and a destabilizing force whose crisis-manufacturing behavior has persisted for decades. The piece questions the value of engagement with a government it portrays as a corrupt, mafia-like regime that lacks legitimacy or popular support. At the same time, the Israeli military said it struck a Hezbollah operative in southern Lebanon, the third such strike reported today, underscoring ongoing cross-border violence. In Tehran, Iran’s foreign minister told CNN that war would be an disaster for all sides, while asserting that a deal with the United States on the nuclear program could be reached if sanctions relief and recognition of Iran’s rights are addressed, and stressing that the focus should be on Iran’s capabilities rather than rhetorical debates. He said that Iran has grown wary of the United States as a negotiating partner. A separate account quoted remarks suggesting that a US strike could spark a regional war, with President Trump signaling openness to a deal but warning that failure would test calculations on both sides. Additionally, an Israeli drone strike targeted a vehicle in the southern Lebanese town of Harouf, described as the day’s third strike against Hezbollah activity. Taken together, the reporting this hour depicts a region where diplomacy remains entangled with military actions and heightened warnings from multiple capitals.In the Disputed Territories (Gaza, Judea and Samaria, East Jerusalem), concern over the trajectory of Gaza-related violence is rising. The National Committee for the Administration of Gaza and the Board of Peace, led by Nickolay Mladenov, denounced weekend violence and ceasesfire breaches, noting Hamas operatives emerging from tunnels in Rafah and Israeli strikes that killed civilians; the statements emphasize the risks to progress under UN Security Council Resolution 2803 and the Trump 20-Point Peace Plan and call on all sides to exercise restraint as Gaza prepares to assume civilian and security responsibilities. Separately, Rafah Crossing reopened on Sunday under highly limited Israeli conditions described as a major achievement given the circumstances before the massacre, with Prime Minister Netanyahu portraying the move as a result of resisting international pressure to allow operation under far weaker standards. The reopening is framed against the historical context of the crossing as Hamas’ smuggling route and the broader security considerations along the Gaza frontier. A report from a West Bank rescue group described an incident involving a bus in the region with window damage, reflecting ongoing public safety concerns in the territory, even as broader ceasefire management and reconstruction efforts move forward.In US Policy Concerning Israel, watchers assess how Washington’s stance is shaping Israeli security decisions. An analysis of Netanyahu’s remarks at a recent press conference reviews his assertion that an arms embargo cost Israeli lives and notes the contentious framing around US policy during the Trump era, raising questions about aims and timing in public diplomacy with the Biden administration. Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo argues that Trump will deliver on Iran and contends Gaza should not be transferred to the Palestinian Authority, stressing that threats to the Iranian regime will materialize and that Hamas cannot be expected to lay down its arms; he also rejects the idea of handing Gaza to the PA after a conflict, arguing for a continued security-focused approach. In Washington, top US and Israeli generals met at the Pentagon to discuss tensions surrounding Iran, reflecting ongoing high-level coordination as both nations monitor regional risk and the potential for escalation.In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, new research highlights how incidents of hate are perceived and confronted across communities in the United Kingdom. A University of West London study found that victims’ initial responses to religiously motivated hate vary by community: Jews and Hindus more often report outward inaction, while Muslims display a broader spectrum of responses, including verbal confrontation and seeking formal help. The research, examining 2023 data on religious hate crimes in Britain, notes Muslims accounted for about 39% of victims, Jews roughly 17%, and Hindus about 3%, underscoring the disproportionate burden borne by Jewish communities that represent less than 1% of the population but account for a notable share of religious hate-crime victims.

      HEADLINES- Iran Threatens Regional War Amid Nuclear Talks- Rafah Crossing Reopens Under Tight Conditions- Police Barred From Commissioner's Office Amid RiftThe time is now 1:02 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.In the conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, a cycle of sharp rhetoric and military moves continues to shape the region. An opinion piece argues against dialogue with what it calls a savage regime, describing the Tehran government as illegitimate and malign after 47 years in power. Iranian officials meanwhile press for a path to a nuclear accord on terms they say would lift sanctions and recognize Iran’s right to enrichment for peaceful purposes, while warning that war would be catastrophic and that American bases in the region would be targets if conflict erupts. Iran’s leadership has signaled readiness to respond to aggression, with the supreme leader warning that any American attack would likely trigger a regional war, even as Tehran says it does not seek to initiate broader fighting. In recent comments, Iran’s foreign minister suggested that nights between January 8 and 10 could mark a continuation of the recent clashes, while insisting that a negotiated settlement remains possible if the United States lifts sanctions and recognizes Iran’s nuclear rights; he warned that should negotiations fail, the region would see escalation. The same exchanges underscored by Iranian officials include calls to refocus discussion on Tehran’s nuclear capabilities and a demand for a fair deal that would end American pressure. At the same time, top US and Israeli generals met at the Pentagon to discuss tensions surrounding Iran, a signal of the high-level planning around potential scenarios in the region. President Trump weighed in on the rhetoric, questioning why the Iranian leader would make such a claim and suggesting there could be room for a deal if talks progress. In Lebanon, an Israeli drone strike targeted a Hezbollah operative in Harouf, the third such strike reported today, illustrating how regional spillovers are shaping day-to-day security calculations.In the Disputed Territories (Gaza, Judea and Samaria, East Jerusalem), officials urged restraint while warning that Gaza-related violence continues to threaten the fragile ceasefire arrangements. The National Committee for the Administration of Gaza and Nickolay Mladenov voiced deep concern over ceasefire breaches after a weekend of fighting, including a tunnel incursion from Rafah and Israeli strikes that killed civilians, stressing the need to uphold UNSCR 2803 and the broader peace framework while Gaza shifts toward recovery and reconstruction. Separately, Israel reported the Rafah Crossing reopening under highly limited conditions on Israel’s terms, a move described as a significant, twofold achievement: it offers relief relative to the prior situation and comes despite international pressure to ease the standards governing the crossing. In the West Bank, rescue services reported a incident involving a bus in the Tekoa area, with damage to a window, illustrating ongoing tensions and civilian vulnerability in the territory.In US Policy Concerning Israel, analysis and commentary focus on a recent dispute over arms policy and the broader strategic dynamic with Washington. One analysis discusses Prime Minister Netanyahu’s contention that an arms embargo against Israel had cost lives, noting that the embargo ended with the change in US administration and raising questions about timing and necessity. The piece examines how emphasis on ammunition availability and escalation dynamics shaped the war’s later stages, and what it means for US-Israel defense cooperation. Separately, Mike Pompeo argued that President Trump’s approach toward Iran and the broader region would translate into concrete actions, including in Gaza, and urged that Gaza not be allowed to fall under Palestinian Authority control, while signaling that a firm line toward Iran remains a central element of US strategy.In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, a UK study highlights how victims respond to hate incidents and how responses differ by community. The research from the University of West London finds that Jewish and Hindu victims most often respond with outward inaction in the first moments after an incident, while Muslim victims display a broader range of responses, including confrontation and seeking formal help. The study notes that religious hate crimes rose in Britain, with Muslims constituting a large share of victims and Jews representing a disproportionately high portion of religious hate-crime victims relative to their population size. By March 2023, investigators recorded nearly 9,400 religious hate crimes, underscoring the enduring challenge of anti-Jewish and religious bias in the country.In Israeli Domestic Politics, a rift within the security establishment has led to visible friction at the top ...
