The day was dominated by a Russian drone crashing into a Romanian apartment block, injuring two and triggering NATO condemnation. The incident, described as the most serious security breach since the Ukraine war began, led Romania to expel a Russian diplomat. Coverage evolved from early reports of the strike to EU and NATO warnings, with speculation about Article 4. The US-Iran peace deal remained prominent: Trump shared a draft with allies, Vance said they were 'very close', and by evening Trump claimed to be on the verge of approving a deal that would lift the Hormuz blockade. The Canadian 'poison seller' Kenneth Law pleaded guilty to aiding suicides by selling toxic chemicals online, a story that ran across multiple outlets. Tabloids focused on crime and celebrity: a Sikh killer's racist smear, a stalker's murder conviction, and Brad Pitt's son dropping his surname.
