Overview

• President Trump warned he would launch fresh airstrikes “without question” if Iran resumes uranium enrichment, signaling readiness for renewed conflict.
• He sent legal demands to CNN and the New York Times to retract intelligence reports that said the strikes only set Iran’s nuclear program back by months, threatening to sue when they refused.
• In a defiant response to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s declaration of victory, Trump said Iran “got beat to hell” and boasted he spared the leader’s life during the strikes.
• Tehran’s foreign minister condemned the IAEA’s offer to inspect bombed sites and rejected requests for access, accusing the agency of acting with “malign intent.”
• U.S. officials have made inspection guarantees a precondition for the potential talks with Iran scheduled next week while the fragile Israel-Iran ceasefire holds.
