A helicopter crash, a widening rift, Peru's endless count, and Zelensky in Tallinn

A US Army Apache helicopter crashes near the Strait of Hormuz — Trump blames Iran and orders new strikes, breaking a one-day ceasefire. Trump and Netanyahu are now openly at odds over Lebanon and the Iran nuclear deal. Peru's presidential runoff is still undecided with 94% counted and Sánchez holding a razor-thin lead.

Trump signals Iran deal, Kushner's resort sparks Albanian protests, Ukraine's two-track Thursday, and Peru heads to a runoff

Zelensky offers Putin a face-to-face peace meeting — on the same day Russia kills 12 Ukrainians.
