Iran fires ballistic missiles at Emirati waters and loses its last Gulf market by midnight, and Trump declares the talks over.

Kushner leaves Jerusalem with Israel's sequence and the pullback still open — and Likud's members spare all three men the prime minister's circle marked.

Iran comes out of the sixty-day memorandum with the Revolutionary Guards over the regular army and a bounty on any American soldier.

Hezbollah spends a drone on a ridge it has already lost, and Katz moves to take civilian policing in Judea and Samaria off the army.

The siege at Qusra brought Judea and Samaria before the Security Council, where the ask was that the policing pass to somebody other than Israel — with Britain drafting a September package and eight governments promising practical steps.

Israel is putting soldiers and caravans onto ground it means to keep. And keeps reading the objections about it after.

Israeli fire crosses the Yellow Line for the first time under the new approval rules, and Likud's own court freezes a Netanyahu slot.

Trump parks the Iran strike until after November, and Netanyahu takes eleven of Likud's top twenty-nine places out of his members' hands.

Netanyahu rejects a roadmap Israel is already performing, and nobody in Washington minds.

Israel has signed nothing, and the roadmap is running anyway.
