Trump's announced ceasefire between Israel and Iran collapsed within hours of its supposed implementation. After initially claiming both sides had accepted a "total ceasefire," the agreement unraveled by morning when Israeli forces detected Iranian missile strikes. Israel's defense minister promised "high-intensity" retaliation, while Iran denied launching any missiles.
By mid-morning, Trump expressed frustration with both countries, saying they "don't know what they're doing" and telling Israel to "really calm down." Despite the chaos, he maintained the ceasefire remained "in effect." Netanyahu later claimed he had "restrained" himself from further strikes after speaking with Trump.
Both sides eventually declared victory in what they termed the "twelve-day war," with Iran's president announcing its end while Netanyahu claimed a "historic victory."
Domestically, the pension reform talks collapsed completely, prompting Socialist deputies to file a no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Bayrou. The government also ordered the immediate immobilization of 1.7 million vehicles with defective Takata airbags.
