Yemen Houthi

Yemen's Huthi rebels targeted two US destroyers with drones and missiles as they transited the Bab al-Mandab Strait, but the warships defeated the attacks, the Pentagon said Tuesday.

Yemen's Houthis said on Monday that they carried out three operations targeting vessels in the Red Sea and Arabian Sea. The attacks included strikes on the Motaro in the Red Sea and Bab al-Mandab Strait with ballistic missiles.

The United States launched a series of airstrikes on Wednesday evening targeting key underground weapons storage facilities controlled by Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen.

The deaths of two US Navy SEALs during an operation earlier this year to seize Iranian weapons bound for Yemen's Huthi rebels were "preventable," an investigation into the incident found.

Air raid sirens echoed across central Israel including Tel Aviv after surface-to-surface missiles were fired from Yemen on Israel on the first anniversary of deadly attacks in Israel where over 1,200 people were killed.

US forces on Friday hit 15 targets in Huthi-controlled areas of Yemen, the US military said.

History is littered with examples of how non-state militant actors, driven by ideology, are easily able to bulldoze their way to power before regional or international consensus-led political alternatives even start materialising.

The Iranian regime is not going anywhere in a hurry, nor is its worldview going to change. The only change that might come would be in the shape of its capabilities.

Yemen's Houthi rebels conducted drone attacks on "vital targets" in Israel's Tel Aviv, backing the Palestinian and Lebanese wars against Israel.

Israeli forceslaunched airstrikes on Yemen's Ras Isa Port on Sunday, targeting oil facilities and power stations controlled by the Houthi rebels.

The Israeli military said on Sunday it was striking several Houthi rebel targets in Yemen, including power stations and a seaport, using dozens of aircraft.

Yemen's Houthi rebels on Friday said they had carried out a missile and drone attack on central Israel, after Israel's military said air defences intercepted a missile fired from the country.

Lebanon's political system is deeply entrenched in sectarian divisions. The country is a confessional democracy, meaning that key political and military positions are reserved for representatives of specific religious sects.

The group, officially known as Ansar Allah, evolved from a grassroots religious movement in the 1990s to a powerful militia with sophisticated weapons.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Israel would inflict a "heavy price" on the Iran-aligned Houthis who control northern Yemen, after they reached central Israel with a missile on Sunday for the first time.
