The day began with US strikes on Iranian radar and drone sites, and Iranian missiles on Kuwait, continuing the previous day's escalation. By morning, Netanyahu ordered an attack on Beirut's southern suburbs after US approval, prompting Iran to warn it would defend Lebanon. In the afternoon, Iran suspended negotiations with the US and threatened to close the Strait of Hormuz and Bab el-Mandeb, dominating headlines across outlets. Trump then called Netanyahu and Hezbollah, claiming attacks on Beirut would stop and negotiations would advance, though Netanyahu said operations in the south would continue. The French navy intercepted a Russian oil tanker in the Atlantic, and four charred bodies were found in a car in Cosenza. Roland Garros tennis updates ran throughout the day.

Republic Day dominated editorial priorities, with all outlets covering the 80th anniversary parade and President Mattarella's speech framing the Constitution as a 'common home' and migration as integral to Italian identity. The military display and Frecce Tricolori flyover received extensive live coverage throughout the morning.
By afternoon, a competing narrative emerged: four migrant workers burned alive in a minivan in Calabria. A survivor's account of exploitation and two arrests shifted attention to labor abuse, with outlets like Corriere della Sera and La Repubblica giving the story prominent placement.
International news continued from previous days: a massive Russian missile attack on Ukraine killed at least 10, and Trump's heated call with Netanyahu—reportedly calling him 'fucking crazy'—was detailed by Il Sole 24 Ore and Il Fatto Quotidiano. A 6.2 magnitude earthquake off Calabria caused no damage but was widely reported.
