Israel Today: Ongoing War Report - September 28, 2026, 06 PM Eastern

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited the UAE for high-level talks on regional challenges, including Iran, marking the first official confirmation of such a trip by Abu Dhabi. In Washington, President Trump stated the war with Iran would conclude soon and linked it to lower gas prices. Domestically, Netanyahu strongly denied allegations of prior knowledge of the October 7th attack, accusing foreign and domestic actors of spreading 'blood libels.' Meanwhile, the Case 3000 inquiry into his past submarine procurement enters its final stages, and the opposition Yashar party unveiled its plan for young adults.
