Overview
- The Defense Department has publicly identified two service members killed in the rocket attack on Muwaffaq Salti Air Base and now lists a recovered set of remains as likely belonging to a third 28‑year‑old service member who is considered presumed dead.
- U.S. forces have carried out repeated night raids on Iranian military and maritime infrastructure, with CENTCOM naming targets such as command centers, hangars, drone depots and logistics facilities as ways to limit Tehran’s ability to threaten shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.
- President Trump has warned of further strikes and specifically named an underground site reported to be linked to Iran’s nuclear work, a threat Tehran’s top military command said would be treated as an expansion of the war and would invite retaliation against U.S. interests.
- In Germany, the tenth anniversary of the Olympia‑Einkaufszentrum attack has renewed calls from victims’ families for a parliamentary inquiry after state authorities reclassified the 2016 shooting as a right‑wing, racist attack in 2019 and survivors say key witnesses were not heard.
- Separate German inquiries continue at the local level: the Seelingstädt arson suspect is held in psychiatric custody after police found multiple items in a nearby quarry search, and authorities are investigating violent incidents in Chemnitz and other recent public‑safety cases.
