Morning coverage focused on the approaching U.S.-Iran ceasefire deadline, with multiple sources reporting Iran's refusal to negotiate under threats and Trump's claims that further extension was 'highly unlikely.' By midday, editorial attention shifted to Trump's ultimatum that Iran must negotiate or face military consequences, while simultaneously praising Iran and signaling a potential deal was still possible. Evening reports consolidated on Iran's charges of 'piracy and state terrorism' against the U.S. for seizing vessels in the Strait of Hormuz, Trump's refusal to extend the ceasefire, and Pakistan's diplomatic efforts to extend talks as the deadline arrived.
