Welcome to Ark News Daily with Deborah Pardes. Every morning, we’ll give you the latest headlines from Israel and the United States’ war with Iran and explain its impact on the Middle East and the Jewish world. 

Today’s headlines:

- Cautious optimism that the end of the war is near

- China publicly pushes for peace while quietly positioning itself as Iran’s most important postwar ally.

- Protests outside a Manhattan synagogue reignite debate over antisemitism, free speech, and where protest crosses into intimidation.
