- The Iranian government retaliated by launching drones and missiles at Israel and U.S. military installations in Bahrain, Kuwait and Qatar; Secretary of State Marco Rubio briefed seven of Congress's Gang of Eight, and no U.S. citizen deaths have been reported.
- Senior officials say the strikes required close U.S.-Israel coordination, while critics, including The Guardian, argued they lacked legal foundation and minimal consultation with Congress; Trump framed the campaign as seeking regime change and warned of casualties.
