The Molad of Tammuz 5762 was MON June 10, 4:21pm(Israel Summer Time)

Three days (72 hours) later is Thursday afternoon, so the first opportunity for Kiddush L’vana according to Minhag Yerushalayim (the shita of the GR”A) is Thursday night.

Many people will wait for Motza’ei Shabbat (which is only two nights later, and in the summer time it is highly unlikely to have a Moon obscured or covered by clouds (in Israel). That’s Motza”Sh, eve of the 6th of Tammuz
People who wait a strict seven days from the Molad before K.L. will have their first opportunity next Monday night, June 17th

Remember that the different opinions of 3 or 7 days after the Molad are based on the definition of MEI’IR LA’ARETZ, illuminating the Earth.
Chassidim & S’faradim favor the 7-day rule.
