The time is now eight one pm in New York. I'm Noah Levi and this is the latest Israel Today ongoing war report. In Operation Lions Roar, the United Arab Emirates conducted dozens of air strikes against Iran as part of the war, coordinating with the United States and Israel
using intelligence from both sides. The strike's targeted Iranian energy infrastructure, including operations on Kesham and Abu Musa Islands in the Strait of Harmers, Bandar Abbas, and the Lavan Island oil refinery, and at least one strike on the Azalai petrochemical complex carried out with Israeli involvement. The campaign drew international condemnation.
In US military role, US Central Command has notified mariners and airmen in the area north of the Musandam Peninsula in the Strait of Harmers of impending dangerous military activities to address Iranian minds, according to a notice from the
United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations Centre. In Israeli domestic politics, Israel Police's Traffic Division issued over four thousand tickets on Thursday as part of a nationwide enforcement drive against dangerous driving, with hundreds of officers patrol cars, motorcycles and volunteers taking part and digital enforcement tools identifying offenses such as distracted driving,
self an use, and speeding. Drivers were captured on camera for offenses, including a case where a driver was stopped for driving with a revoked license, was arrested and had his vehicle impounded. Another incident on Highway six involved a driver using a selfon with a child improperly secured in the vehicle. Among the thousands of tickets issued, authorities highlighted the breadth of offenses and the role of digital enforcement.
Also in Jerusalem, Italian author Ery de Luca told a gathering at the International Writers Festival that he is prepared to lose everything for his convictions as he spoke about Israel, ill Hebrew, and Zionism. Separately, red alert sirens were heard in northern Israel, underscoring ongoing security tensions in antisemitism and
anti Jewish hate. US prosecutors say a defendant link to Iran orchestrated a string of attacks on Jewish targets as part of an Iranian psychological warfare campaign targeting Jewish sites in Europe and potentially plots against Jewish targets in the
United States. The European attacks included a synagogue explosion in Belgium, arson at a synagogue in the Netherlands, a bomb at a Jewish school in Amsterdam, and the torching of four Hatsola ambulances in London, along with a car fire in Antwerp in March, with the group Harracat a shab Aliyam in Alislamia known as h YI, claiming credit investigations connect Iran to the European attacks and to plots against US targets, with an indictment naming Mohammad Baker Sard Darwood Alsadi, an
alleged member of Katibezbulah. Thank you for tuning in to this Israel Today Ongoing War Report update. I'm Noah Levi. Stay safe and informed.
