The day was dominated by Trump's announcement that he had canceled a large-scale attack on Iran, conditional on a swift deal. State-aligned outlets framed this as a retreat, while foreign Persian media emphasized the conditional nature and ongoing pressure. By afternoon, focus shifted to negotiations over a new corridor in the Strait of Hormuz with Oman, with state sources denying any request from Iran. Reports of Saudi Arabia urging Trump to prioritize dialogue appeared, alongside domestic stories on Arbaeen traffic and a protest in Qom against CEDAW ratification. The editorial narrative moved from imminent strike to diplomatic maneuvering, with military readiness still highlighted.
