Arkia says it will resume direct flights to Morocco on August 24, restoring the route for the first time in roughly three years after it was suspended due to the war. The airline will operate twice-weekly nonstop service to Marrakesh using Airbus A320 aircraft. Arkia says the route's return follows extended coordination with aviation and security authorities, allowing Israeli travelers to once again fly directly to Morocco.

The IDF says troops operating in the Bint Jbeil area of southern Lebanon yesterday detained a Hezbollah operative from the group's elite Radwan Force, following an encounter in the same area where forces previously engaged terrorists last Thursday. According to the military, the suspect was transferred into Israel for questioning by Unit 504. The IDF says the Radwan Force has been responsible for attacks targeting both Israeli civilians and troops throughout the war, adding that it will continue operating against threats and prevent Hezbollah from carrying out attacks.

US President Donald Trump said he does not expect the latest escalation with Iran to develop into a prolonged conflict, insisting, "I don't think it's going to start again. I think it's going to go very quickly." Speaking after the NATO summit in Ankara, Trump said the US responded forcefully after attacks on commercial vessels. "They hit a couple of ships, and so we hit them much harder," he said, adding that the US is "not looking for long term" and that "anything that happens is going to be over very quickly, and we'll only make it safer, including for oil." Despite saying US negotiators remain in contact with Iran, Trump appeared to question whether a new agreement is even necessary. "I'm not sure I want to make a deal. Let's just finish the job," he said. On Turkey, Trump indicated he is leaning toward allowing the country back into the US-led F-35 fighter jet program, while noting no final decision has been made. "I haven't totally made up my mind, but my inclination is to say... he's helped us in so many different ways," Trump said of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, adding that although Erdogan "doesn't like Israel," he stayed out of the war with Iran after Trump asked him to.

President Donald Trump said the United States is expected to carry out another round of strikes against Iran tonight, following Tehran's attacks on commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz and actions involving neighboring Gulf states. Speaking during a meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at the NATO summit in Ankara, Trump said the U.S. struck Iran "very hard" overnight and warned that more military action is likely. "We'll probably hit them hard again tonight," he said, adding that Iran would receive "a little warning." Trump also indicated Washington may no longer move forward with its memorandum with Iran, arguing that the country's recent actions have made a military response the easier course. "We may just do it without a deal, because... it's easier," he said. The president defended the agreement negotiated by his administration, claiming it creates a complete barrier to Iran obtaining a nuclear weapon. He contrasted it with the 2015 nuclear deal reached under former President Barack Obama, arguing that the earlier agreement instead opened a pathway for Iran to develop one. During the exchange with reporters, Trump again claimed his administration had achieved regime change in Iran and referred to the country's current leadership as "cuckoo." He also mistakenly referred to the "Islamic Republic of Japan" while claiming that 111 missiles launched at a U.S. aircraft carrier during the conflict were all successfully intercepted.
