BREAKING
Sheikh Qassem: Our supporters make up more than half of Lebanon's population, and all of these people are united under the banner of protecting Lebanon, its Resistance, its people, and its integrity.
Sheikh Qassem: There will be no phased handing in of our arms. [The Israelis] must first enact the agreement before we start talking about a defensive strategy.
Sheikh Qassem: Be brave in the face of foreign pressures, and we will be by your side in this stance.
Sheikh Qassem: Stripping us of our arms is like stripping us of our very soul, and this will prompt us to show them our might.
Sheikh Qassem: We will not abandon our arms, for they gave us dignity; we will not abandon our arms, for they protect us against our enemy.
Sheikh Qassem: The US efforts we are seeing are aimed at sabotaging Lebanon and constitute a call for sedition.
Sheikh Qassem: If you truly want to establish sovereignty and work for Lebanon’s interests, then stop the aggression.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States, which is meddling in Lebanon, is not trustworthy but rather poses a danger to it.
Sheikh Qassem: The United States is preventing the weapons that protect the homeland.
Sheikh Qassem: The government’s latest decision [on the disarmament of the Resistance] is non-charter-based, and if the government continues down this path, it is not faithful to Lebanon’s sovereignty.

A series of intense Israeli airstrikes targeted the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, and the city of Hodeidah in western Yemen, Al Mayadeen’s correspondent reported in the early hours of Thursday.

According to our correspondent, approximately six Israeli airstrikes hit the Hodeidah port and the Ras Issa oil facility in western Yemen, resulting in the killing of nine people and injuries to several others among the facility’s staff.

The correspondent further noted that Israeli strikes targeted the central Dahban power station in northern Sanaa. Later, he indicated that civil defense teams successfully extinguished the fire at the Dahban station, while efforts continued to put out a blaze at another facility.

BREAKING:

Israel is bombing Yemen’s capital of Sanaa.

Israel is now literally waging attacks on 4 different countries at once: Yemen, Syria, Lebanon, and Palestine.

Yet Western media will still somehow frame Israel as the victim.

Local Yemeni sources confirmed that three airstrikes targeted the power station in the Hezyaz area south of Sanaa.

The sources added that the strikes caused widespread power outages across several areas due to the Israeli assault on the Hezyaz power station.

For its part, the Israeli military announced it had launched a series of airstrikes on Yemen’s western coast and the capital, Sanaa.

Meanwhile, the Associated Press cited a US official as claiming that the United States did not carry out the attacks on Yemen.

In response, Al Mayadeen’s Washington bureau chief stated that it is unlikely "Israel" would conduct an assault on Yemen without coordinating with the United States.

The Israeli aggression comes as Yemen continues its support for Gaza and the Palestinian people, carrying out operations targeting ships in the Red and Arabian seas headed to Israeli ports and striking deep into occupied Palestine.

Fragments of the Yemeni missile landed in the Ramat Gan area in central occupied Palestine, causing material damage, according to Israeli media.

An Israeli media platform reported that “the missile launched from Yemen directly hit a building in central [Israel].”

Simultaneously, Israeli media outlets reported multiple explosions in al-Quds as air raid sirens sounded in Tel Aviv.

Journalist Firas Tannina told Al Mayadeen that Israeli air defenses failed to intercept a Yemeni hypersonic missile, adding that nearly a million settlers rushed to shelters after the missile struck Gush Dan.
