13.07.2026The Day Trump Vowed to Strike Iran's Nuclear Facilities

Editors led with Trump's evening threat to strike Iran's nuclear facilities under 'the mountain of the axe,' overshadowing earlier diplomatic and military developments. The day began with US strikes on Khuzestan and Markazi provinces, followed by IRGC retaliation against US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait. By morning, the Strait of Hormuz emerged as a flashpoint, with Iran asserting control and Trump later announcing a naval blockade and 20% transit fees. Lebanon's Rome negotiations on pilot zones and Israeli withdrawal remained secondary, though Aoun's pledge to defend the south and the arrest of an ISIS commander received brief attention. Yemen's retaliation against Saudi Arabia for striking Sanaa airport added regional breadth, but Trump's nuclear ultimatum dominated the evening cycle.
