On July 15, the dominant editorial story was Iran's formal abandonment of the Islamabad accord, with Parliament Speaker Qalibaf stating Iran had no reason to adhere to an agreement that brought no benefit. This declaration, carried by state-aligned and foreign-based outlets alike, framed the day's military escalation. The morning opened with IRGC strikes on US bases in Kuwait, Bahrain, and Jordan, and CENTCOM's renewed naval blockade and fresh waves of attacks on southern Iran. By afternoon, state media highlighted zero traffic on the US-approved route in Hormuz, while foreign sources reported US strikes on Tonb Island and threats of ground operations. Evening coverage focused on a second wave of CENTCOM strikes and Trump's refusal to set a deadline for hitting infrastructure. Throughout, the death of the Islamabad accord served as the political anchor for the ongoing cycle of retaliation, with both sides emphasizing military readiness and diplomatic deadlock.
