The day commenced with continued extensive Israeli airstrikes against Houthi targets in Yemen, followed by Houthi missile launches towards Israel, building on previous day's actions. Simultaneously, Prime Minister Netanyahu arrived in Washington for his pivotal meeting with President Trump. While discussions centered on advancing a Gaza hostage deal, initial talks between Hamas and Israel yielded no breakthrough, with reports of negotiation progress varying throughout the day as the US pushed for a swift resolution. A major focus emerged with Iran's President claiming Israel attempted his assassination and admitting severe damage to nuclear facilities. Domestically, a coalition crisis deepened as Haredi parties boycotted Knesset votes over the stalled conscription law, halting legislative efforts. Discussions also persisted on controversial proposals for Gazan "de-radicalization" and population relocation. The high-stakes, unpublicized Trump-Netanyahu summit dominated later coverage, aiming to bridge negotiation gaps and address broader regional strategy.
