French editors focused on Iran's announcement of the full reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, following the previous day's ceasefire between Israel and Lebanon. Morning coverage detailed immediate violations of that ceasefire, with Lebanese military accusations of Israeli aggression and Hezbollah retaliatory strikes. By early afternoon, multiple outlets reported Iran's declaration that the strait was completely open to commercial traffic during the truce period. Evening coverage highlighted international responses, with Emmanuel Macron calling for unconditional reopening and a neutral security mission from an Élysée conference, while Donald Trump welcomed the move but maintained the U.S. blockade and rejected European security proposals.
