Spanish editors prioritized NATO's interception of Iranian missiles over Turkish airspace throughout March 9th, with multiple outlets reporting the incidents and Spain's involvement in the defense operations. Morning coverage focused on Iran's leadership succession, with Mojtaba Jamenei's designation as supreme leader framed as a challenge to Trump, while Israel activated alerts against Iranian missiles and launched attacks on Beirut. Early afternoon reports detailed NATO's second interception over Turkey and Macron's announcement of an international mission to protect oil tankers and reopen the Strait of Hormuz. Evening coverage shifted to Trump's declaration that the Iran war was 'practically terminated' and his consideration of taking control of the Strait of Hormuz, while oil prices fell following his announcement.
