G7 leaders have reportedly drafted a statement affirming Israel’s right to self‑defence while asserting that Iran must “never” acquire nuclear weapons, according to Reuters sources. The proposed text also calls for de‑escalation amid the fourth day of escalating hostilities following Israel’s “Operation Rising Lion” on June. Leaders emphasized the need to protect energy-market stability. However, U.S. President Trump has not yet approved the draft, and no joint communique is expected, indicating the position remains a work in progress. Formal adoption could occur later in the summit.
