Houthi leader: No compromise with US and Israel
On Sunday, Yemen's Ansarallah (Houthis) leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, rejected 'submission' to US and Israeli authority, arguing that such compliance results in loss and humiliation both.
In a televised speech, al-Houthi reiterated the group's firm opposition to what he described as American and Israeli aggression in the region, vowing continued support for the Palestinian cause and alignment with 'regional resistance movements,' a term often used to refer to Iran-aligned groups such as Hezbollah and Iraqi factions like Kataib Hezbollah.
Despite growing international criticism and media pressure, the Houthi leader affirmed that his group's stance is 'non-negotiable' and that it will continue its political and military activities in line with its declared objectives.

KRG delegation in Baghdad to discuss financial disputes
Also in Kurdistan Sulaimani town uses cameras, fines to curb littering Turkish soldier death toll from methane exposure in Kurdistan Region rises to 12 Five Turkish officers killed due to methane gas exposure in Kurdistan Region Why did PKK pick Sulaimani for first disarmament? A+ A- ERBIL, Kurdistan Region - A high-level delegation from the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) arrived in Baghdad on Monday as the regional and federal governments near a final agreement to end their financial disputes, a well-informed source told Rudaw. The delegation includes Kamal Mohammed, KRG's acting minister of natural resources and KRG Cabinet Secretary Amanj Rahim, the source told Rudaw, on the condition of anonymity. This delegation's visit comes as Baghdad has prepared a draft agreement on oil exports and is awaiting Erbil's response, expected later on Monday. The KRG delegation had begun its meetings with the federal authorities by the time of reporting. A source close to the KRG, speaking to Rudaw on condition of anonymity due to the sensitivity of the discussions on Sunday, confirmed that the proposed arrangement is "in its final stages." Under the deal, the "KRG will hand over all crude oil produced to Baghdad. In return, the Iraqi federal government will be responsible for supplying the Kurdistan Region with its domestic needs for refined petroleum products,' the source added. Oil exports through the Iraq-Turkey pipeline have been suspended since March 2023, following an arbitration ruling in Paris that found Turkey had violated a 1973 pipeline agreement by enabling Erbil to independently export oil in 2014. Last week, Kurdistan Region Prime Minister Masrour Barzani stated that the halt has resulted in more than $25 billion in lost revenues for the KRG. Sangar Abdulrahman contributed to this article.

IRGC: Iran did not utilize full missile capabilities
Shafaq News – Tehran Iran's armed forces are prepared to launch a "strong" response to any future Israeli or US attacks, with much of their missile arsenal still unused, a senior Revolutionary Guard official warned on Sunday. Brigadier General Ebrahim Jabari, senior advisor to the commander-in-chief of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), declared that the military remains at full combat readiness, emphasizing the scope and depth of Iran's underground missile infrastructure. The IRGC's Aerospace Force has so far showcased only a "fraction" of its capabilities among its vast and strategically dispersed arsenal, according to Jabari. Referencing late IRGC commander Amir Ali Hajizadeh, who was killed in an Israeli airstrike on June 13, Jabari recalled his assertion that Iran could launch daily missile attacks for two years without exhausting its stockpile. Should hostilities intensify, Jabari warned, Iran's conventional forces, including the Army and Air Force, would be drawn fully into the conflict. 'Our response would not be partial,' he asserted. 'If the Zionist regime pushes forward, all components of our defense establishment will engage.' He further indicated that Iran's regional partners across the 'Axis of Resistance' would join the battlefield in the event of an escalation, and "will not stand by." The remarks follow a wave of strikes between Iran and Israel in June, which saw the US intervene and attack nuclear facilities in Natanz, Isfahan, and Fordow.
