Trump hints strikes on Iran power plants
Turkey debuts Roketsan UAV-230 boosts firepower
Gaza abductions widen amid drone footage

The time is now 9:02 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.

In Operation Lion's Roar, Trump told Fox News last night that strikes destroyed about 55% of the air defense systems and radars Iran restored during the ceasefire.

In US Military Role, US President Donald Trump said the United States may begin striking Iran's power plants and bridges because the Islamic regime has been stalling in peace talks, telling Fox News's Trey Yingst that "I may keep going" and that "They had a chance to sign a deal and survive." He noted that on Tuesday Iran shot down a US Apache helicopter over the Strait of Hormuz and that the United States must respond to that attack, and he posted on Truth Social criticizing Iran with the line "The Bully of the Middle East is DEAD!!!" He also described in his posts that negotiations had gained little and that diplomats were pursuing a deal, with reports noting that Qatari negotiators had traveled to Tehran to try to narrow remaining gaps in the talks.

In Regional Impacts, Turkey's Roketsan UAV-230 missile has entered service with the Turkish Land Forces Command, significantly boosting firepower. The IHA-230 is an air-to-surface ballistic supersonic missile with a range of over 150 kilometers, weighing 225 kilograms, with a 42-kilogram warhead and options for fragmentation, armor-piercing, or thermobaric effects. It is guided by GNSS-supported inertial guidance and is designed to counter air defenses, radars, and other targets, primarily launched from UAVs such as Bayraktar’s AKINCI and AKSUNGUR. Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan warned that Israel's aggression threatens Turkey and the broader Mediterranean region, saying Israel’s attacks on Syria and Lebanon have brought regional peace into question and urging that no one pursue adventures or join Israel's "boat of mischief." In Gaza-related reporting, Gaza channels described an expansion of abduction actions by militias opposed to Hamas, including the setup of a roadblock near the Wadi Gaza bridge and the detention of seven Gaza Red Crescent workers (five released after investigation), with two detainees identified as Ahmed Abu Raya and Wiss Ma'ari; a further report cited the abduction of another Gaza resident named Ahmed Albatsh from the Shifa area in eastern Gaza. Also, a warning note indicated a 2024 video published by Gaza channels showing an Israeli drone over Khan Younis' Had al-Qatari district engaging a Palestinian on a rooftop before the person was killed.

In Antisemitism and Anti-Jewish Hate, a Pennsylvania man, 30-year-old Edward Arthur Owens Jr. of Elizabeth, was sentenced to 30 months in prison followed by three years of supervised release after pleading guilty to antisemitic threats against a public official and making false statements to FBI agents about possessing a licensed pistol. Prosecutors said Owens sent a Facebook message in which he threatened violence and used antisemitic language, including calls to "exterminate" and references to 109 countries. The threats were directed at a public official from a pseudonymous account, with the victim believed to be Jewish and supportive of Israel; a federal judge, Nora Barry Fischer, noted the nature of the conduct before sentencing.
