Israel Today: Ongoing War Report - August 17, 2026, 01 PM Eastern

Iran signals a shift to a 'fully offensive' posture, raising regional tensions and preparing for broader conflict, including threats to the Strait of Hormuz and Saudi energy infrastructure. Meanwhile, Israel and the US reach an understanding on disarming Hamas, with weapons to be destroyed by a US-led force, while Finance Minister Smotrich advocates for Israeli settlements in Gaza. The Palestinian Authority expresses concern over US engagement with Hamas, viewing it as divisive, as President Trump considers endorsing candidates in upcoming Israeli elections. We also cover a critical stabbing incident involving children in Beit Shemesh, ongoing tensions in the West Bank, and reports of antisemitic incidents in Barcelona and Portugal. Finally, an Israeli rescue team continues its mission in Colombia following a major earthquake.
