    HEADLINES- US Strikes ISIS in Syria after Palmyra- Judge Lets Hasidic Whistleblower NYC Suit Advance- Senator Pushes Gaza Governance Board with TroopsThe time is now 8:02 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.At eight oh one p.m., we begin with a roundup of developments shaping security and policy across the Middle East and the Jewish world, interwoven with wider global and domestic events.In Syria, the United States has carried out large-scale strikes against Islamic State targets in central Syria in retaliation for an attack that killed three Americans in Palmyra last weekend. Defense officials described the operation as launching from air and ground assets and targeting dozens of infrastructure sites, weapons depots, and staging locations. Officials said the strike involved more than one hundred precision munitions and that more than seventy targets were hit across central Syria. The assault followed a deadly Palmyra attack in which two US soldiers and a civilian interpreter were killed and three other American service members were wounded. The United States emphasized that the operation is a forceful demonstration of accountability for attacks on American personnel, while Syria’s government reiterated its commitment to pressing the fight against the Islamic State and denying the group any space to operate inside Syrian territory. American and allied forces remain in Syria, conducting ongoing operations aimed at degrading Islamic State capabilities as part of the broader conflict in the region.In Washington and New York, a significant domestic development intersects with regional concerns. A federal judge in the Eastern District of New York has allowed a lawsuit brought by a Hasidic whistleblower alleging mishandling of sex-abuse investigations to proceed against New York City, effectively removing some immunity from the district attorney’s office and the city. The eight-two-page ruling highlights the ongoing balancing act between protecting vulnerable communities and ensuring accountability within city institutions, a matter that has long drawn attention within parts of the American Jewish community and beyond.On the diplomatic and policy horizon, discussion continues in Washington about Gaza governance and stabilization. A senior United States senator described a plan to establish a Gaza governance board and, with foreign troops, a stabilization presence intended to help manage security and humanitarian needs in the enclave. The proposal underscores the urgency felt by policymakers in the wake of sustained fighting and humanitarian concern, even as prospects for its practical implementation remain complex and contested among regional and international actors.Beyond the security front, observers note a broader reshaping of ties and policy. Reports from Israel indicate that the departure of a key adviser to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Washington has created a noticeable vacuum in US-Israel coordination. The adviser had played a central role in a range of issues, including coordination with Washington on diplomacy, hostage negotiations, and relations with Arab states. While a replacement is anticipated, officials have warned that the transition could slow some channels of contact at a critical juncture as talks related to Syria and other regional issues face questions about representation and authority.In the diaspora and religious life, a major initiative within the American Jewish community marks a turning point in attitudes toward interfaith marriage. A leading movement within American Judaism has published a formal apology for decades of discouraging interfaith relationships and signaled a shift toward greater engagement with intermarried families. The plan calls for reexamining traditional interpretations of ritual rules and exploring new educational and pastoral approaches, while stopping short of immediately lifting a long-standing prohibition on officiating interfaith weddings. The leadership stresses that the aim is to repair trust and expand pathways into Jewish life without declaring a sweeping change in policy at once, reflecting ongoing debates within the movement about tradition, inclusion, and community cohesion.On security and regional stability, collaboration and warnings continue regarding Hezbollah. Saudi media reports cite findings of a Hezbollah tunnel with weapons in southern Lebanon, a development that Israeli officials say is another reminder of the threats on multiple fronts. In Washington, Senator Marco Rubio reaffirmed that disarming Hezbollah would require a strong Lebanese government and warned that peace would be elusive if Hezbollah continues to threaten Israel, highlighting the precarious balance in the region as diplomatic talks proceed, pause, or stall depending on the ever-shifting political dynamics.Cultural and community ties continue to play a role in shaping perceptions of regional events. A noted dance...

    HEADLINES- U.S. strikes ISIS facilities in Syria- Caesar Act lifted, Syria eyes revival- Gaza governance plan aims stabilization forceThe time is now 7:00 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.This is the latest hourly briefing. At the center of today’s developments is a broader effort by the United States to respond to attacks on its personnel while pressing concerns across the region about security, governance, and stabilization.In Syria, the United States has launched a targeted operation against Islamic State facilities, leadership hubs, and infrastructure, in what officials describe as a direct response to an attack on US forces last weekend. The operation is being framed as a focused counterterrorism action rather than a full-scale war, and it follows a decision by Pentagon leadership to pursue a plan of immediate, forceful action to degrade ISIS capabilities in the Syrian theater. The strikes come as Washington seeks to deter further assaults on American forces and to signal that the United States will act decisively to protect its personnel and interests in the region.Meanwhile, Syria’s government welcomed the lifting of some of the most restrictive sanctions that have been in place for years. Officials say the repeal of the Caesar Act will help open Syria’s economy to international markets, finance, and investment and may facilitate a path toward reconstruction. World Bank assessments estimate the rebuilding cost in the hundreds of billions of dollars, and Syrian officials say a sovereign rating would provide a benchmark for investment. Regional partners welcomed the move as a step toward stability, noting that broad participation by neighbors and allies could help spur reconstruction and political normalisation. United States allies in the region, including Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar, also signaled support for the move, emphasizing the connection between sanctions relief and broader regional stabilization efforts.In the political arena, US officials outlined plans for Gaza governance as part of a broader strategy to stabilize the enclave. A senior US official described a two-stage framework: first, the establishment of a Board of Peace comprising international observers and Palestinian technocrats; second, the deployment of a stabilization force to Gaza. Washington has suggested that security on the ground and credible governance are prerequisites for donor funding and long-term reconstruction. While there is broad international interest in stabilizing Gaza, questions remain about how Hamas’ disarmament would be achieved and how foreign troops would operate on the ground, including mandates, rules of engagement, and funding. Officials say conversations with prospective partner states continue and that several nations have expressed preliminary interest in contributing to stabilization efforts.Israel-Lebanon talks are continuing, with regional observers noting a shared interest in preventing escalation along the border. Saudi media reported findings by the Lebanese army of a Hezbollah tunnel in southern Lebanon, accompanied by weapons stockpiles. In Washington, Senator Marco Rubio underscored that disarming Hezbollah will require a strong, functioning Lebanese government and warned that any threat from Hezbollah could derail prospects for lasting peace with Israel, urging that negotiations continue with this in mind. The public emphasis from policymakers across capitals remains on ensuring that any movement toward a ceasefire is paired with credible security arrangements to prevent renewed cross-border clashes.On the security front, there have been notable domestic and diaspora-linked security concerns. In the United States, a separate incident has drawn attention to antisemitism and school safety: a Pennsylvania elementary school principal faced termination after antisemitic remarks surfaced in a recorded conversation; district officials said they acted swiftly. In Canada, police announced the arrest of three men accused of attempting kidnappings targeting women and Jews, with authorities saying the suspects had possible links to terrorism and received weapons and training materials targeted at Jewish communities. Community leaders urged authorities to step up protection for Jewish communities in light of rising hate crimes and regional tensions following extremist incidents abroad.In North America, new into-the-weekend developments included the death of a suspect linked to separate, high-profile attacks in the Boston area and at Brown University, with autopsy findings indicating the suspect had died days earlier. Investigators described a complex set of circumstances surrounding the incidents, including possible links to extremist networks; authorities stressed the ongoing need for vigilance and co-operation with law enforcement. Separately, investigators continued to assess the broader implications of these incidents for campus ...

    HEADLINESUS strikes ISIS across Syria after PalmyraCaesar Act repealed, Syria opens financesGaza governance via international board, stabilization forceThe time is now 6:01 PM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.This is your hourly news update. In Syria, US forces have launched an extensive operation against Islamic State targets, an action described by officials as a direct response to last weekend’s attack on American personnel in Palmyra. US military assets, including airpower and ground teams, have struck dozens of sites across central and eastern Syria, with coordination from allied partners. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth said the strikes are a tactical measure aimed at ISIS fighters, infrastructure, and weapon sites and that this is not a declaration of war but a response to a lethal attack that killed American service members and a civilian interpreter, with additional US wounded. The operation underscores ongoing US concerns about ISIS remnants in the region and the risk they pose to American personnel and regional stability.In Washington, there is another thread of development. The Caesar Act sanctions on Syria have been repealed, a move welcomed by the Syrian government as a step toward reintegration into the international financial system and a shift in the country’s economic posture. Syria’s central bank chief said the removal of the sanctions will help open doors to investment and credit, although officials cautioned that a stable credit rating will come only with progress on security and reconstruction. Regional partners welcomed the move as well; Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar hailed the development, and interim President Ahmad al-Sharaa described it as a chance to spur recovery and reconstruction. The World Bank has estimated reconstruction needs in Syria at roughly $216 billion, a figure that will require sustained international support and transparent governance.In the broader Middle East effort to manage the Gaza situation, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke about the next phase of governance for Gaza. He said a new governance structure—an international board working with a Palestinian technocratic authority—would be established soon, followed by the deployment of an international stabilization force to help secure the enclave and enable reconstruction. Rubio cautioned that donors will want clarity on the mandate and funding before committing resources, and he indicated that discussions with partner nations—among them Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey—are advancing in Doha and in related talks in Miami. While the plan envisions moving Gaza toward a more stable administrative framework and eventually a broader political track, disarmament of Hamas and the specifics of how security guarantees will be maintained remain central questions for negotiators, donors, and regional partners.Meanwhile, negotiations between Israeli and Lebanese authorities over the southern border and the fragile Gaza ceasefire continued to unfold. Officials in Naqoura reported cautious optimism about tangible progress that could help prevent renewed clashes. Washington stressed that progress on phase two of the ceasefire would be essential to reduce the risk of renewed fighting, while reiterating that Israel has pledged to respond firmly to any threats from Hezbollah or other actors that threaten the security of southern communities.In other developments with resonance for Jewish communities abroad, Canadian authorities announced the arrest of three men linked to alleged kidnapping attempts targeting women and members of the Jewish community, with investigations uncovering weapons and links to terrorist activity. Police described the suspects as carrying out acts motivated by hate and noted that the case has heightened concerns in diaspora communities about security and the rise of antisemitic violence. Community leaders urged continued vigilance and a stronger protective posture from authorities as a broader debate about security and civil rights continues.In domestic US news, prosecutors in a separate high-profile case have released heavily redacted material from investigations involving a prominent former figure. Officials described the disclosures as ongoing and closed with ongoing proceedings in mind, underscoring tensions surrounding political and legal debates at home even as the focus remains on events abroad.As the day progresses, the international community watches closely how sanctions relief, the Gaza governance framework, and ongoing counter-ISIS operations will interact with the fragile ceasefire dynamics in the region. The situation remains fluid, with the potential for shifts in security arrangements, investment, and humanitarian access as new governance structures take shape and as allied nations determine their level of participation in stabilization efforts. We will continue to monitor the developments and report what they mean for ...
