Israel Today: Ongoing War Report - August 28, 2026, 04 PM Eastern

Today on Israel Today: Ongoing War Report, we begin with significant U.S. Treasury actions aimed at cutting off Iranian financial lifelines, including proposals to revoke correspondent banking access for Banque Misr UAE and new sanctions on Bank Melli. Finland has announced it will cease multi-year funding for UNRWA, citing conclusive evidence of agency employee involvement in the October 7th attacks and links to Hamas. We also examine an analysis describing Israel as facing a 'historic crisis' requiring urgent reforms for national salvation, touching upon proposals for a state inquiry into the October 7th events and judicial changes. In other news, Jerusalem Deputy Mayor Arieh King was denied entry to Canada, with speculation linking the eTA cancellation to campaigning by anti-Israel groups. We also look at the growing recognition of cognitive warfare as a national security threat, and an uplifting story of how DNA testing is helping Holocaust survivors' descendants reconstruct lost family lineages.
