- U.S. and intelligence officials reported severe damage to Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan nuclear sites, which were not completely destroyed but set back for years, while Trump pledged new talks.
- Khamenei declared the Islamic Republic victorious, urged pursuing peace and trade, but warned any aggression will bring heavy retaliation, reflecting ongoing tensions despite the ceasefire.
