HEADLINESWest Bank Kalandia Centre Education At RiskTarabin al-Sana Crackdown Kills Father of SixIran Protests Prompt Emergency UN Rights CouncilThe time is now 7:01 AM in New York, I'm Noa Levi and this is the latest Israel Today: Ongoing War Report.This morning we survey a regional landscape where diplomacy, security concerns, and humanitarian questions collide, shaping the choices of Israelis, their allies, and rival powers around the Middle East and beyond.First, a warning from UNRWA about education in the West Bank. The Kalandia Training Centre, which serves about 350 Palestinian youths, could be closed within days as Israeli authorities weigh expropriation of the land. UNRWA warns that such a closure would deprive a large cohort of Palestine refugees of an educational path and economic opportunity, undermining the right to education. An Israeli government spokesperson has rejected claims of bias, while UNRWA maintains its mandate to aid millions of Palestinian descendants. The dispute highlights a persistent friction between security concerns and the right to schooling in a volatile border region.In the Negev, Bedouin communities face days of upheaval after a tightly choreographed security operation. Tarabin al-Sana, a village that backed Prime Minister Netanyahu’s Likud party in recent elections, saw roadblocks, tear gas, and searches that villagers say resembled military raids on the West Bank. A 36-year-old father of six was among those killed in the crackdown, which officials billed as part of a broader effort against crime and illegal weapons flow. Residents describe the move as punitive and point to long-standing grievances over infrastructure, employment, and discrimination. Critics argue the operation could become a political signal ahead of forthcoming elections, while supporters say it demonstrates resolve to restore order in a region long plagued by crime.Turning to broader human rights concerns, the United Nations Human Rights Council is convening an emergency session on Iran to address the violence against protesters. Rights groups cite thousands of deaths and abuses since nationwide demonstrations began, arguing for accountability and potential future legal proceedings. Countries backing the session are framing this as a pivotal moment for transitional justice, with Iranian authorities blaming outsiders for unrest. The discussion foregrounds the international community’s intent to document abuses and consider consequences for rights protection as Iran’s government pursues a path it views as resisting dissent.In Syria, government forces say they have taken over al-Aktan prison in Raqqa, a facility previously under Kurdish-led control. The shift comes as Damascus advances against IS-linked detainees and coordinates with partners in an ongoing security realignment in the northeast. The move follows a broader effort to consolidate control over territory that has seen multiple power centers contend for influence. The United States has been transferring thousands of ISIS detainees from Syrian jails to Iraq, a development that raises questions about regional stability and the management of detainee populations across borders.In another security-focused development, a warning from Kurdish activists about potential violence in northwestern Syria has drawn international attention. Kurdish groups and their supporters warn of possible massacres if regime forces consolidate power in regions now under Kurdish control. The discourse comes as US forces reassess their footprint in the area and debate the implications of any withdrawal for regional stability and Kurdish protection.On the political-security front, the Gaza-based Board of Peace conversation continues to loom large in international diplomacy. Analysts caution that despite talk of ceasefires and reconstruction, Hamas intelligence gathering and deployment planning persist in the background as the group weighs its next steps. The long arc of governance and security in Gaza remains in focus as various actors seek to harmonize humanitarian relief with strategic pressure.Across the broader arena, trilateral talks in Abu Dhabi involving the United States, Russia, and Ukraine mark a notable diplomatic step. Washington has sought to mediate a framework for ending the war in Ukraine, with attention directed at territory in Donbas and security guarantees that Kyiv says it needs to prevent renewed aggression. Ukrainian President Zelenskiy reiterates that the Donbas question will be central to discussions, while signaling readiness to consider security assurances that could shape future reconstruction. The discussion also touches on how frozen assets might be allocated in post-conflict rebuilding, though Kyiv rejects any plan to divert assets toward reconstruction in Russia-occupied areas.Meanwhile, a separate diplomatic thread involves Russia’s military intelligence chief, Admiral Igor Kostyukov, who is slated to lead Moscow’s delegation ...
