โจThe newspapers report escalating cross-border strikes with Iranian missiles hitting Israel's Soroka hospital in Be'er Sheva, causing "severe damage," while Israel attacked Iran's heavy water reactor at Arak (Corriere Della Sera, Il Sole 24 Ore, La Repubblica, La Stampa, Sky TG24). Trump approved attack plans against Iran but stated he's "giving Tehran time" to respond, though suggested negotiations might be "too late" (Corriere Della Sera, La Stampa, Sky TG24). The IAEA contradicted Trump's nuclear claims, stating it "never said Tehran is building a bomb" despite Trump asserting Iran is "close to nuclear weapons" (Adnkronos, Corriere Della Sera). Iranian state television confirmed the Arak reactor strike while reporting continued missile barrages on Tel Aviv, Ramat Gan and Holon (ANSA, Sky TG24).
