Iran launched overnight missile barrages across Israel, escalating tensions as fighting continued on multiple fronts. In response, Israeli forces carried out strikes in Beirut and Tehran, widening the scope of the conflict.

At the same time, advisers to President Donald Trump briefed him on potential paths to deescalate the war, while also presenting options to intensify pressure on Iran’s leadership. Officials indicated that internal discussions reflect a divide between those worried about global economic consequences and those who see an opportunity to curb Iran’s regional influence.

One official noted that the timeline of the war remains uncertain and could shift rapidly depending on decisions made in the coming days.
