HEADLINESIranian missile shrapnel ignites central Israel warehouseEpic Fury targets Iran Trump urges asylumRadar bases damaged as Bahrain attackedThe time is now 7:01 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.In Direct Israel-Iran Clashes, a fire in central Israel broke out after shrapnel from an Iranian missile hit the area following a launch that triggered sirens across the country. Firefighters determined the blaze erupted at a warehouse hit by a missile fragment and it immediately went up in flames, with crews working to prevent spread to nearby buildings and extinguish the source. A 10-year-old boy sustained minor injuries from the shrapnel and received first aid at the scene before being taken to a nearby hospital; responders also treated three people for post-traumatic symptoms. Earlier, sirens sounded nationwide, and later, in a northern town, sirens were heard but no property damage or injuries were reported. Separately, there was a Beqa area drone intrusion alert, with analysts weighing how many launchers Iran may have left and the potential for delayed use, as the conflict moves into its sixth day and Israel reports only mild injuries.In US Military Role, President Donald Trump urged Iranian diplomats to seek asylum during a White House address tied to an event hosting Inter Miami CF, saying the United States aims to finish the war in Iran and “totally demolish” the regime as part of Operation Epic Fury. He described rapid retaliation against missile launches, saying that once a missile is set off, the launcher is hit within minutes, and he asserted that Iran has no functioning air force or air defense and that their aircraft, air defenses, missiles, and launchers have been substantially degraded. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth later said the United States was not expanding its objectives in Iran, with the Pentagon focusing on destroying offensive missiles, missile production and the Navy to prevent Tehran from obtaining a nuclear weapon, noting more than 2,000 targets have been hit in Iran over the past six days, including Iranian warships. CENTCOM leadership emphasized progress, with statements that Iran’s ballistic missile production and related capabilities are being dismantled and that the campaign has reduced attacks notably in the last 24 hours, while partnerships with allied forces continue and the operation persists.In Regional Impacts, satellite imagery from Airbus Defence and Space appears to show a damaged AN/TPY-2 Forward Based X-band radar, the primary radar for the US Army’s THAAD system, at Muwaffaq Salti Air Base in Jordan, with assessment that similar radar installations at bases in the United Arab Emirates were hit as well. Bahrain’s capital Manama reported damage to two hotels and a residential building from an Iranian drone and missile attack in the last minutes, with no loss of life, according to the Ministry of Interior. Video circulated of a large fire at Ali Al Salem Air Base, the joint US-Kuwaiti facility, reportedly struck by Iranian ordnance. Explosions and air defense activity were also reported over Bahrain following early warnings of a ballistic missile attack by Iran, and there were reports of explosions in Kuwait targeting Ali Al Salem airbase.In the Conflict with Iran and its Regional Proxies, Iran has so far attacked 12 countries in the Middle East: Israel, Jordan, Cyprus, Turkey, Azerbaijan, Kuwait, Qatar, Bahrain, Oman, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq. The region also bore destruction in Dahieh in Beirut after the recent attacks.Thank you for tuning in to this Israel Today: Ongoing War Report update.I'm Noa Levi.
