US launches second Iran airstrike wave; Tehran reported to retaliate across Gulf region
The United States conducted a second wave of airstrikes on Iranian targets after President Trump warned Iran would 'pay the price' for stalled negotiations, according to DW News. Iran responded with strikes on military installations in Bahrain, Kuwait, and Jordan. DW News reports the escalation has placed a fragile two-month ceasefire under severe strain and appears to have pushed diplomatic efforts further off track, with both sides signaling hardened positions.
