The US military said on Tuesday that its forces had destroyed two anti-ship cruise missile launchers in a Houthi-controlled area of Yemen.

 

US Central Command said on the social media site X that the missile launchers "presented an imminent threat to US and coalition forces and to merchant vessels transiting the region."

 

Houthis claim to continue targeting ships owned or operated by Israeli companies or transporting goods to or from Israel in support of Palestinians in Israel's war in Gaza.

Israel’s military said Saturday that it killed a Hezbollah intelligence official in a strike on Beirut’s southern suburbs, where Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah was killed.

The army said it “eliminated” Hassan Khalil Yassin in a strike in the Dahiyeh area of Beirut.

It added that Yassin was involved in planning attacks on Israeli soldiers and civilians, including some planned to be carried out “in the coming days.”
