20.06.2025The day Geneva talks yielded nothing

Iran's ballistic missile devastated Beer Sheva at dawn, destroying apartments and injuring seventeen while hitting near a Microsoft office. Netanyahu immediately declared Israel would "stop Iran's nuclear program with or senza Trump," defying the American president's extended two-week timeline.

European foreign ministers from France, Britain and Germany convened emergency talks with Iran's Araghchi in Geneva, producing what Corriere della Sera called "three hours, zero progress." Iran indicated willingness for dialogue while refusing to halt uranium enrichment. Trump simultaneously claimed "Tehran wants to talk with me" while stating it was "difficult to ask Israel to stop" as they were "winning."

The violence escalated throughout the day with new Iranian missiles striking Tel Aviv, Jerusalem and Haifa's port, while Israeli forces hit Tehran's research facilities. In Gaza, conflicting reports emerged of 35-82 killed when shots were fired at crowds awaiting aid. Italian authorities rescued another convoy of citizens from Iran, including an 18-month-old child.
