Israel Today: Ongoing War Report - September 22, 2026, 02 PM Eastern

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz has issued a stark warning to evacuate Gaza City if Hamas captures more hostages. Meanwhile, UK counter-terrorism police have arrested two individuals in connection with a suspected plot against the Jewish community in Manchester. On the educational front, discussions are intensifying around the curriculum in Gaza's reopened schools, with questions raised about potential indoctrination versus tolerance. Reports also detail a UN UNFPA allegation of increased gender-based violence in Gaza, the debate ignited by the film 'NAZA' on collateral damage, and international policy developments including U.S. sanctions affecting Iran flights. Domestically, National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir outlines his political demands, while the IDF launches a new unit for career officers. Finally, an anti-Israel protest at a Holocaust memorial in Budapest is highlighted.
