21.06.2025 โ‡ข The day Khamenei vanished from secret talks
โŒจIsraeli strikes intensified throughout the morning, with reports claiming the elimination of Iranian commanders who financed Hamas's October 7 attack. Israeli officials declared their operations had delayed Iran's nuclear program by at least two years, while Putin publicly defended Tehran's right to peaceful nuclear use.

The day's pivotal development emerged through Axios reporting that Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei had become "introvable," causing the collapse of secret US-Iran negotiations organized by Trump and Erdogan in Istanbul. Media described Khamenei as hiding in bunkers since the conflict began, while explosions continued across Tehran.

In Rome, approximately 100,000 protesters gathered against military rearmament, with opposition parties submitting a unified motion demanding the government revoke military cooperation with Israel. The demonstration represented Italy's largest anti-war mobilization in recent memory, with Cardinal Parolin endorsing the protest.

โŒจThe newspapers report Trump stating "Tehran wants to talk with me" while simultaneously declaring it's "difficult to ask Israel to stop" as Netanyahu prepares to "go all the way" with military action (Adnkronos, ANSA, Avvenire, La Repubblica). European diplomatic efforts in Geneva produced "zero progress" after three hours of talks, though Iran showed willingness for dialogue without halting uranium enrichment, with one official stating they want "serious talks, respectful approach" (Corriere Della Sera, Il Sole 24 Ore). The violence intensified with new Israeli attacks on western Iran, Iranian missiles striking Israel causing explosions in Tehran, and missile damage to Beer Sheva and Haifa port with 17 injured, while Gaza saw dozens killed when shots were fired at crowds (La Stampa, Sky TG24).

Israeli sources claim their raids destroyed 50% of Iran's missile launchers and struck the Isfahan nuclear site, with officials maintaining they've delayed Iran's atomic program by 2-3 years (ANSA, Il Sole 24 Ore).

โŒจThe newspapers report approximately 100,000 protesters gathered in Rome against military rearmament, with Five Star Movement leader Conte declaring "there's a people saying no to this madness" and organizers warning of world war risk (Adnkronos, ANSA). Cardinal Parolin endorsed the demonstration, stating it's "good that there is" such opposition to rearmament. HuffPost Italia suggests Conte is positioning the left in opposition to President Mattarella's foreign policy supervision, challenging Italy's Euro-Atlantic alignment. Meanwhile, escalating Middle East tensions continue as Houthis threaten to sink American ships if the US attacks Iran, while Putin reaffirms Tehran's right to peaceful nuclear use (Il Sole 24 Ore, La Repubblica). A tragic accident occurred at a water park in Brescia where a 4-year-old child died after falling into a pool (Corriere Della Sera).

โŒจThe newspapers report Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei has become "introvable" (untraceable), causing the cancellation of a secret meeting between US and Iranian representatives organized by Trump and Erdogan in Istanbul (Adnkronos, ANSA, Corriere Della Sera, Il Sole 24 Ore, La Stampa, Sky TG24). Multiple sources cite Axios reporting that Khamenei remains hidden in his bunker since the conflict began, while explosions continue in central and northern Tehran. Iranian President Pezeshkian declares there will be no halt to the nuclear program, as Israeli strikes have reportedly destroyed over 50% of Iran's ballistic missile launchers in recent days.
