Hours after Iranian FM Araghchi reaffirmed Iran’s refusal to abandon nuclear enrichment, the IDF issued a sharp warning, vowing the campaign against Iran “isn’t over.” Israel signaled continued military readiness, citing multi-front operations against Hezbollah and Iranian targets. Araghchi called the nuclear program a national achievement, while acknowledging U.S. B-2 bomber strikes caused severe damage. Trump shared the remarks as proof of success, threatening further attacks. With Iran’s defiance and Israel’s vow to strike, the Middle East risks sliding toward a wider regional conflict.

A preliminary probe revealed Cohen died from an Israeli munitions blast, highlighting the dangers of the ongoing ground offensive. Hamas’s military wing continues targeted attacks, vowing an attrition war if Israeli tanks advance further.

Houthi forces launched a missile toward Israel after the IDF carried out drone strikes on Yemen’s Hodeidah port, a key hub allegedly used to import Iranian weapons.
