Editors led with the deepening crisis in Shiv Sena (UBT), as Uddhav Thackeray offered to resign as party chief after six Lok Sabha MPs defected to the Shinde faction. Eknath Shinde warned this was 'just a trailer,' signaling further splits. The rebellion dominated headlines from morning, when only three MPs attended a parliamentary meeting, through afternoon, when Uddhav called the rebels 'traitors' and offered to step down if a successor was chosen. The US-Iran deal continued to reverberate: Trump claimed Iran was 'finished' and would receive no money, while Israel and Hezbollah agreed to a ceasefire after Trump's ultimatum. Iran denied closing the Strait of Hormuz but imposed new transit rules. Domestically, the Delhi High Court upheld the temporary Telegram ban ahead of the NEET-UG re-exam, and Reliance's AGM announced a Jio IPO and sovereign AI plans. The Ram Mandir donation row prompted calls for management overhaul.
