• Tehran launched a fresh barrage of ballistic missiles and drones toward central and northern Israel, prompting air-raid sirens in Tel Aviv and near-total interception by Israeli defenses.
• A Washington-based rights agency reports more than 700 dead and over 2,500 wounded in Iran, including civilians, while Iranian strikes have killed at least 24 Israelis and injured hundreds.
• Cease-fire talks in Geneva collapsed as Iran’s Abbas Araghchi refused negotiations under fire and warned that any U.S. military involvement would be 'very dangerous'.
• IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir has warned Israelis to prepare for a prolonged campaign after operations destroyed more than half of Iran’s missile launchers and, according to officials, set back its nuclear program by at least two years.
