⌨The newspapers report that Pakistan has declared readiness to launch nuclear weapons in support of Iran, with sources claiming atomic bomb guarantees have been given as the Israel-Iran conflict enters its fourth day (ABP Live, Dainik Bhaskar). Israeli strikes have now reached Iran's Foreign Ministry, with casualties climbing to 224-406 deaths according to Iranian claims, while Israel reports killing Iran's intelligence chief and forcing Supreme Leader Khamenei into bunkers (India Today, Jagran, Dainik Bhaskar). Israel conducted its longest-range attack yet, striking an Iranian fuel aircraft at Mashhad airport 2,300 kilometers away, while Iran refuses ceasefire talks and continues missile barrages (Aaj Tak, Firstpost, The Hindu). Indian students in the region have appealed for help as the conflict escalates, while domestically, heavy rains have forced school closures across 11 districts with red alerts issued for five districts in Kerala (Jansatta, Mathrubhumi).
