Overnight editors stayed on the Iran war as the House voted a third time to curtail it, with seven Republicans joining Democrats to pass the war powers resolution. Coverage detailed Russian satellite assistance for Iranian strikes, a Pentagon watchdog account of hundreds of buildings and dozens of aircraft hit, costs near $40 billion, and Vance warning of a 'much different phase,' alongside a new sanctions bill giving Trump tariff authority over Russian oil buyers.
Midday attention turned to the Charlie Kirk aftermath as his family filed notice to sue Utah Valley University over security failures, while the House adjourned until November, delaying any Hegseth impeachment vote.
By afternoon the Fed seized the lead, raising rates a quarter-point for the first time since 2023 despite Trump's demands for cuts, with Chair Warsh pledging independence and Trump blaming a hostile board.

Overnight attention to Pistorius's Pentagon meeting and US praise for German NATO progress gave way to the domestic power struggle. All eight CDU minister-presidents issued a joint declaration backing Chancellor Merz and rejecting personnel debates, which editors read as deliberately nameless, fragile unity ahead of Sunday's votes in Berlin and Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.
Ursula von der Leyen's State of the Union address proposed Canada as first associated EU member, a NATO-like Article 4 mechanism and an age limit for social media.
The Brandmauer dispute sharpened, with Hesse premier Rhein demanding an end to AfD exclusion and warnings of federal coercion if the AfD governs Saxony-Anhalt.
Campaign coverage closed on the MV TV duel between Schwesig and AfD challenger Holm and Berlin's RBB arena, alongside record fuel prices and a new anti-terror and anti-fraud plan.

Morning papers centered on the Socialist-led primary for 2027. Six candidacies were to be announced, but only five were validated after deputy Philippe Brun was suspended over accusations of violence. The PS invoked women's rights; Brun pleaded stupeur, denied knowing the charges and announced a complaint, with BFMTV revealing a June referral to the Assembly ethics officer by a former aide.
Attention then moved to purchasing power. Fishermen blocked the Frontignan fuel depot, Macron demanded total mobilisation on supply and prices, and Lecornu extended targeted aid to 31 December, as fuel hit its highest since 2022 and a poll found two-thirds would back a new gilets jaunes mobilisation.
The corruption trial of Rachida Dati opened in Paris without Carlos Ghosn, whose postponement request was rejected.

Overnight coverage stayed with US-Iran war planning.

State outlets answered with CBS-published images presented as extensive damage to US bases, a claimed downing of a 52nd MQ-9 over Qeshm, and rejection of the US account of the F-15 pilot rescue.
By morning the focus split. Exile media moved to the fourth anniversary of Mahsa Amini's death, reporting shopkeeper strikes in Kurdish cities, blocked roads to Aichi cemetery, and an Amnesty International finding of crimes against humanity calling for criminal investigation. State-aligned press ignored the anniversary, highlighting Araqchi's Beijing meeting with Wang Yi, Pezeshkian's subsidy decision, and 200 nights of pro-government street gatherings.

Day one of the Algemene Politieke Beschouwingen dominated coverage as a survival test for minority cabinet-Jetten. Jetten presented his plans as a 'grote verbouwing' asking more from citizens, while previews stressed the cabinet had to win a majority from the opposition.
In the Kamer, D66 leader Paternotte urged the left to cooperate with JA21, prompting GroenLinks-PvdA leader Klaver to dismiss it as political gaslighting. Pressure built over Finance Minister Heinen's draft budget, which the cabinet published following demands from Wilders and the Kamer.
By evening JA21 leader Eerdmans ruled out a total budget deal and demanded the spreidingswet go unenforced, while Klaver refused support if separate deals were struck with JA21. Bontenbal urged broad cooperation. The debate closed in confusion with no majority in sight.
