- Iran's supreme leader warned the U.S. and Israel against new attacks and ordered a "maximum" response to any U.S. attack, the two elements converging across the live coverage.
- Iran hailed a positive shift in U.S. tone amid renewed Doha diplomacy, while separately warning of unfettered retaliation if it is attacked.
Why it matters: Tehran is running two tracks at once — a "maximum" retaliation order aimed at any U.S. strike, and a warm reading of U.S. tone as Doha diplomacy is renewed. That pairing makes the U.S. the clearest target of the warning while leaving the Doha channel the most immediate point where the threat and the negotiation overlap.
