Israel Today: Ongoing War Report - August 21, 2026, 09 AM Eastern

Iran's President Masoud Pezeshkian calls to end the ongoing Middle East war, asserting Tehran is in a stronger position than the US, amid a reported stalemate and ongoing sanctions. Israel strikes a Syrian airbase believed to be prepared for Turkish forces, with PM Netanyahu vowing to prevent Turkish military expansion. In international developments, Turkey petitions Interpol for a red notice against PM Netanyahu over allegations tied to a Gaza flotilla interception. On the ground, Israeli forces killed Fathi Hazem in Jenin after an alleged stabbing attempt, and clashes in the West Bank included reports of a Palestinian home set ablaze. In a story of remembrance, the remains of IDF Sgt. First Class Yehuda Katz, missing since 1982, have been recovered and buried.
