Israel Today: Ongoing War Report - Update from 2026-07-01 at 02:02

HEADLINES
- Trump weighs Iran war but pursues diplomacy
- Kiros wins primary calls Israel genocide
- Draft freeze roils Netanyahu coalition

The time is now 2:02 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In US Military Role, Trump weighed a return to all-out war with Iran but is holding back to preserve diplomacy and the prospects for a nuclear disarmament agreement, focusing on negotiations rather than a full-scale confrontation. The discussions reportedly involved additional strike options and were held with Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and Joint Chiefs Chair General Dan Caine, yet the president has chosen to pursue diplomatic channels for now. Officials indicate the dialogue has centered on “finishing the job,” but Trump assessed that a return to war could derail diplomacy, particularly on nuclear issues. He signaled openness to negotiating beyond an August 18 deadline for a nuclear deal, while ordering limited single strikes in response to Iranian violations of the memorandum of understanding. A White House official said Trump generally prefers the diplomatic path and a final decision has not yet been made.

In US Policy Concerning Israel, Melat Kiros, a 29-year-old former attorney and Sanders-endorsed candidate, won the Democratic primary in a Denver-area district, defeating 15-term Representative Diana DeGette. Kiros has described Israel’s actions in Gaza as genocide and has called for a full arms embargo on Israel, including defensive weapons. She won despite being outspent by more than two-to-one and has promoted Medicare for All and the abolition of ICE, while advocating ending wars by stopping military aid to Israel. Her campaign highlighted disagreements with fellow Democrats who support Israel and aligned with the far left. DeGette, by contrast, supports sending only defensive weapons to Israel and has framed the debate within a more incremental approach to aid.

In Israeli Domestic Politics, editors argue that Israel cannot afford Netanyahu’s capitulation to haredi demands as the political dynamic shifts with dissolution of the Knesset and approaching elections. Ultra-Orthodox parties are using the moment to press for favorable terms, with Defense Minister Israel Katz proposing a temporary freeze on arrests of haredi draft evaders as the Knesset advances a plan to enshrine Torah study in a Basic Law after haredi threats to boycott coalition votes. The bill would pause arrests for 90 days, during which no arrest, investigation, or enforcement would be conducted for failure to serve. The Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee, led by Likud’s Boaz Bismuth, has moved the proposal forward, and Government Secretary Yossi Fuchs, in a letter to Bismuth, argued that arresting yeshiva students could undermine broader enlistment efforts.

Also in Israeli Domestic Politics, the Public Defender’s Office warns of a deepening prison crisis and a broadening of enforcement powers. The 2025 annual report marks 30 years since the office’s founding and notes a widening incarceration problem alongside a High Court ruling barring consent-based searches of suspects’ phones without judicial orders. The office handled 31,677 criminal cases in 2025, with 1,273 indictments withdrawn by the prosecution in magistrates’ courts in cases where the office provided representation, about 8.7% of concluded cases. In August 2025, the High Court accepted a petition challenging police practice that allowed searches of suspects’ mobile phones without orders based on consent, canceling both the practice and the directive, and the Public Defender argued that a suspect’s consent cannot substitute for a judicial order.
