Defense Minister ישראל כ"ץ addressed the possibility of renewed fighting with Iran, saying, "The United States has interests in Iran that go beyond Israel’s."

U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth says he secretly visited troops under CENTCOM, recounts missiles intercepted and pilots back in action, reports a drop in Iranian launches, and warns that if Tehran refuses a deal, the 'War Department' will hit harder—adding, 'Trump isn't bluffing and he won't back down.'

Madrid calls it an "illegal war," bars U.S. use of Spanish bases and rejects related flight plans except in emergencies, forcing longer routes via Northern Europe or Africa.

Israel expands its 'Lion's Roar' campaign with overnight waves hitting intelligence headquarters and missile sites across Iran, including in Tehran; the IDF says operations will continue as developments unfold.
