Hamas: International community's disregard for Zionist enemy's crimes in Gaza is dangerous precedent
Gaza - Saba: The Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) on Tuesday considered the disregard of the international community and its institutions, primarily the UN Security Council, for the Zionist enemy's crimes in Gaza a dangerous precedent, enshrining the logic of arrogance and violating international and humanitarian law. The movement said in a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba): The disregard of the international community and its institutions, primarily the UN Security Council, for the humanitarian tragedy and horrific crimes committed daily by the enemy's army, in sound and image, is a dangerous precedent, enshrining the logic of arrogance and violating international and humanitarian law. With American and European support, the Israeli enemy army has continued to commit genocidal crimes in the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023. This has resulted in the martyrdom of 59,029 Palestinian civilians, the majority of whom were children and women, and the injury of 142,135 others, as of Monday, in a preliminary toll. Thousands of victims remain under the rubble and on the streets, unable to be reached by ambulances and rescue teams. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print

IDF Intercepts Drone Launched from Yemen Amid Rising Tensions
Aden – Israel's Defense Forces announced the interception of a drone launched from Yemeni territory on Monday, stating that the unmanned aircraft was destroyed before reaching its intended target. Military spokespersons confirmed that the drone posed a potential threat to southern infrastructure but was successfully neutralized without triggering air raid sirens. The operation reportedly relied on long-range air defense systems and real-time surveillance. The interception followed earlier claims by the Houthi group of a five-drone attack on Israeli sites. While Israeli officials have not confirmed the full extent of these attacks, they view the incident as a continuation of Iran-backed attempts to destabilize the region. Defense Minister Yoav Gallant reiterated that Israel "will respond decisively to any threat from Yemen," and emphasized the government's coordination with international allies to address security challenges in the Red Sea and beyond.

Yemen's Houthis Launch Drone Attack on Israel Targeting Strategic Locations
Sana'a – Houthi militia in Yemen claimed responsibility for a new drone attack targeting five Israeli sites, including Ben Gurion Airport, Ramon Airport, Eilat Port, and urban areas in Tel Aviv, Jaffa, and Ashdod. According to a statement issued by the group's military wing, five explosive-laden drones were deployed in what it described as a "qualitative operation" in support of Gaza. The Houthis vowed to continue such attacks "until Israeli aggression on Gaza ends." No immediate confirmation was provided by Israeli authorities regarding damage or casualties, although heightened alert levels were reported in affected cities. The attack marks a continuation of cross-regional escalations that have drawn Yemen's Houthis into the broader conflict landscape tied to Iranian-aligned militias.
