The day's dominant editorial focus was the IDF's ground operation beyond the Yellow Line in southern Lebanon, a move permitted for publication by the censor in the afternoon and immediately headlined across outlets. This escalation, aimed at pushing Hezbollah's drone threat northward, was framed as a collapse of the ceasefire. Netanyahu confirmed the deepening operation and seizure of strategic positions. Earlier, US self-defense strikes on Iranian boats and missile sites during nuclear talks drew attention, as did Trump's unusual Camp David cabinet meeting. The attempted assassination of Hamas's new military chief, Mohammed Odeh, just 11 days after his predecessor's killing, became a major evening story. The day also saw the dismissal of former Military Advocate General Yifat Tomer-Yerushalmi and the renewed approval of Roman Gofman as Mossad chief.
