The day began with reports that the US declared the Iran conflict over for War Powers purposes, while CENTCOM prepared renewed strike plans and Trump was briefed. By mid-morning, senior IDF officials warned that without removing Iran's enriched uranium, the campaign would be a failure. In the afternoon, Iran submitted a new proposal via Pakistani mediators, but Trump quickly dismissed it, saying he was 'not satisfied' and threatening to 'blow them up.' The rejection dominated evening coverage. Meanwhile, Hezbollah drone attacks continued, wounding four in the north, leading to tightened Home Front restrictions. Domestically, the Bennett-Lapid merger reshaped opposition politics, and the US announced it would close its coordination headquarters in Kiryat Gat.
