Israel Today: Ongoing War Report - September 24, 2026, 08 PM Eastern

Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian says the United States holds the key to ending the ongoing war, while also affirming Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei's health and Iran's stance on nuclear matters. At the UN, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani engaged in a fiery debate involving accusations of antisemitism and 'genocide lies.' Plus, UC Berkeley is preparing to extend a teaching offer to Israeli scholar Yael Nativ, concluding a legal settlement over a previously denied position attributed to her nationality.
