הבוקר החל עם דיווחים על נדרי חיזבאללה לנקום בישראל על פיצוצי האיתוריות ביום הקודם בלבנון ובסוריה. במהלך היום התרחש גל שני של פיצוצים שכוונו למכשירי התקשורת של חיזבאללה, הפעם במכשירי קשר. מספר ההרוגים והפצועים עלה במהלך היום, כאשר הדיווחים הסופיים מצביעים על לפחות 14 הרוגים ו-450 פצועים. ישראל הואשמה בשתי ההתקפות, אשר שיבשו משמעותית את פעילות חיזבאללה. בחדשות מקומיות, הפדרל ריזרב קיבל החלטה היסטורית להוריד את הריבית בחצי אחוז, ההורדה הראשונה מאז 2020. צעד זה נתפס כניסיון לעודד את הכלכלה המאטה. היום הסתיים עם הודעת איגוד הטימסטרס כי לא יתמכו באף מועמד למירוץ לנשיאות 2024, בשונה מהנוהג הרגיל שלהם.
