USA greifen Ziele in Iran an
01:41
The day was dominated by US airstrikes on Iranian missile positions and boats in the Strait of Hormuz, despite an ongoing ceasefire and negotiations. Multiple outlets reported the strikes as self-defense, while FAZ claimed Iran struck more than the US admitted. The Berliner Zeitung warned of costs for Germany. In domestic politics, a CDU plan against welfare fraud and a leaked proposal to increase nursing care contributions for childless people drew attention. The Bild and Welt reported on a CDU leadership crisis scenario involving a chancellor replacement. Other stories included a deadly train-bus collision in Belgium, the Enhanced Games doping event, and Russia's renewed threats against Kyiv with the Oreshnik hypersonic missile.
