Editors shifted focus from Gaza ceasefire violations to a regional escalation when Iran launched missiles at Jordan's Aqaba and Israel's Eilat. The IRGC claimed responsibility, and Jordan intercepted several rockets. This dominated afternoon coverage, with outlets like PNN, Sama News, and Arabi21 updating on the strikes and US-Iran tensions. Earlier, the day began with reports of continued Israeli attacks in Gaza, including the Zeitoun family massacre and settler violence in the West Bank. Hamas called for intervention, and internal Palestinian politics saw Hamas denying election rumors. By evening, Israeli estimates warned of imminent Iranian ballistic missiles, and US casualties in direct clashes were reported, signaling a widening conflict.
