DOMINANT ANGLE
Buenos Aires reconstructs May 6 hour by hour: the operation announced with fanfare, buried in silence
Dominant angle identified — does not reflect unanimity of this country’s media
ANALYSIS
Buenos Aires — via MercoPress — delivers the most precise factual reconstruction of the day.
The narrative: Trump suspends 'Project Freedom,' the military operation launched barely 24 hours earlier. The announcement, posted on Truth Social, contradicts the message maintained all day by Rubio, Hegseth, and Chief of Staff Caine — all three having presented the operation as a non-negotiable humanitarian mission.
The numerical tally: Project Freedom mobilized over 100 aircraft, 15,000 military personnel, and a destroyer flotilla during its sole operational day. American forces destroyed six rapid assault craft of the Revolutionary Guards. Iran struck an Emirates tanker at Fujairah (three wounded) and fired on a South Korean vessel.
MercoPress notes the diplomatic dimension: Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif called on both parties to respect the ceasefire. Trump announced he would discuss reopening the strait with Xi during a planned China visit the following week.
