The time is now 02:00 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.
In recent developments concerning the Israel-Hamas conflict, Colonel Dvir Edri, commander of the 460th Brigade in the Armored Corps, provided insights on the IDF's military decisions. He mentioned the proximity to a military decision in Gaza and readiness for potential conflict in the North. Despite challenges faced by IDF soldiers and the prolonged nature of the conflict, Edri expressed confidence in the experienced commanders and soldiers working towards clear goals.
Regarding the IDF's ability to achieve its objectives, Edri indicated progress and significant accomplishments on the ground, suggesting closeness to a military decision. He highlighted the evolution of IDF's capabilities in Gaza, emphasizing the diminishing effectiveness of Hamas over time, indicating a strategic advantage for the IDF.
The flow of American arms to Israel has slowed due to a decrease in new Israeli requests, sparking a diplomatic dispute. This reduction in shipments is attributed to prior deliveries fulfilling orders and a decline in fresh procurement by the Israeli government. This development has raised concerns amid ongoing conflict dynamics.
In another development, Israel Air Force jets conducted strikes on Hezbollah military targets in Lebanon, specifically in the Matmoura and Chebaa areas. This operation aimed to target Hezbollah's military infrastructure, demonstrating Israel's continued military engagement beyond the Gaza region.
Additionally, a significant fire near the Ofrit military base on Mount Scopus in Jerusalem, suspected to be caused by firebombs, required the deployment of 25 fire crews to contain it. The blaze posed a threat to Hadassah Hospital, with arson suspected in an earlier fire in the area. Authorities are investigating the incidents to ascertain the causes and prevent future risks to public safety.
