08.07.2026 ⇢ The day Trump ended the Iran ceasefire
⌨
Overnight, US strikes on Iran following tanker attacks in the Strait of Hormuz dominated headlines. By morning, Trump declared the ceasefire 'is over' and called the regime 'scum' during a NATO summit tirade. Throughout the day, editors tracked escalating rhetoric and military action: Trump threatened to hit Iran 'hard again tonight', while Tehran warned of a 'fearless' response and regional retaliation. By evening, fresh US strikes were reported along Iran's south coast. The story evolved from initial strikes to a full breakdown of the truce, with outlets emphasizing Trump's personal threats and the risk of wider war. Meanwhile, the Farage by-election stunt continued to draw mockery, as all main parties refused to stand, leaving only Count Binface as a rival. The triple murder of a mother and two children in a luxury home, with the IT expert husband named as suspect on the run, gained traction in tabloids. Marine Le Pen's reduced ban allowed her to plan a 2027 presidential run.
