IDF claims it captured terror operative in Syria
The IDF said it detained a Syrian citizen it alleged was working for Iran.
The Israel Defense Forces conducted what it called "precise strikes on military targets" in Iran on Friday in response to the Iranian missile strikes earlier this month.
Meanwhile, Israeli airstrikes and ground fighting continued in Gaza -- particularly in the north of the strip -- and in Lebanon, with renewed Israeli attacks on Beirut.

US says Israel's implementation of UNRWA ban could have 'consequences'
The Biden administration is "deeply troubled" by the Israeli parliament's vote to sharply restrict the U.N. Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees, State Department spokesperson Matt Miller said Tuesday.
"It could shutter UNRWA operations in the West Bank, in Gaza, in East Jerusalem. It poses risks for millions of Palestinians who rely on UNRWA for essential services, including health care and primary and secondary education," Miller said.
"Particularly in Gaza, they play a role right now that, at least today, cannot be filled by anyone else. They are a key partner in delivering food, water and other humanitarian assistance to civilians in Gaza that wouldn't have anyone else to get it from if UNRWA were to go away," Miller said.
Miller said that the U.S. had “made clear our opposition to this bill” to Israeli authorities and said there could be "consequences under U.S. law and U.S. policy for the implementation of this legislation."
"We are going to engage with the government of Israel in the days ahead about how they plan to implement it. We're going to watch and see if there are legal challenges to the law, and if there's any impact by those legal challenges, and then we'll make our decisions after looking to all those facts," Miller said.
