Early morning reports established the day's dominant narrative with multiple outlets covering Iran's announcement of a drone hunt for 'American terrorists' (RT, Vesti). Midday coverage expanded this with reports of Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps striking Tel Aviv and U.S. bases in Iraq and Kuwait (Vesti), while state-aligned outlets emphasized Trump's preference for dealing with Putin over Zelensky (RIA Novosti, Meduza). Afternoon reports detailed escalating conflict with Iran attacking a Dubai financial institution (NTV.ru) and Israel vowing to continue strikes for three weeks (RT), alongside U.S. denials of targeting Iranian energy infrastructure on Kharg Island (Vesti, Svoboda.org). Evening coverage maintained focus on domestic security with increasing numbers of drones intercepted near Moscow (Interfax.ru, NTV.ru).
