The day was dominated by the escalating US-Iran confrontation at the Strait of Hormuz. In the morning, Trump launched 'Project Freedom' to forcibly free ships, with Iran threatening to attack US forces. By mid-day, Iran claimed to have struck a US warship with two missiles, though Washington denied. The US asserted control of the strait and opened a corridor for transit. In the afternoon, a South Korean cargo ship caught fire after an explosion near Hormuz, and missiles hit the Emirates. Trump threatened to annihilate Iran if it attacked US ships. The Garlasco murder case continued with new interrogations of witnesses. In Germany, a car attack in Leipzig killed two and injured several others.
