The day began with US strikes on Iranian radar sites near the Strait of Hormuz after downing four drones, reported by VOA and BBC Persian. State-aligned Tasnim framed it as US aggression, while exile outlets detailed the US actions. By morning, IRGC launched retaliatory missiles at US bases in Kuwait and Bahrain, with CENTCOM claiming interception of six of seven. Kuwait and Bahrain condemned the attacks as 'blatant aggression.' IRGC threatened to close the Strait entirely. Student protests over exam policy spread to 16 provinces, covered by Iran International. In the afternoon, Iran's Foreign Ministry condemned US strikes as ceasefire violations, while Pakistan's interior minister arrived in Tehran for mediation. The day closed with Trump stating Iran's 'proud' leaders now face unavoidable concessions.
