Israeli settlers besieged three Palestinian homes in the West Bank village of Qusra for five nights, drawing sharp US criticism, while the UAE accused Iran of attacking two ADNOC tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. Israeli strikes killed a Hamas commander in Gaza City, and a British firm began containing a massive oil spill from a grounded Russian shadow fleet tanker off Oman.

The UAE says Iran targeted an ADNOC tanker with a missile in the Strait of Hormuz, drawing Gulf condemnation. The IRGC says reopening the strait is contingent on US acceptance of Iranian conditions and is unrelated to ongoing Iran-Oman talks. Israeli forces advanced and shelled multiple towns in south Lebanon, and an IDF soldier was moderately wounded in an operational accident. Netanyahu seeks an additional $17 billion in military spending. Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and Pakistan signed a collective defense pact.
