Armed Forces Spokesman: Yemeni Air Defenses Effectively Confronted Israeli Aggression
The official spokesman for the Armed Forces, Brigadier General Yahya Saree, confirmed that the Yemeni air defenses effectively confronted the Israeli aggression and forced a large portion of its formations to withdraw.
In a statement issued today, Brigadier General Saree indicated that the air defenses confronted the Israeli aggression with a large barrage of locally manufactured surface-to-air missiles, causing great confusion among the enemy pilots and their operations rooms.
He said, "Our air defenses are ready and prepared to confront the Israeli attacks on our country with all strength and power, God willing."
He added, "We assure our people and the free people of our nation that our armed forces are at high readiness and capable, with God's help, of confronting the aggressors. These attacks will not affect them or their military capabilities, and that support operations for Gaza and Palestine will continue at a rapid pace. We will defend our country and our nation with all our strength, God willing."

Israel Intercepts Houthi Drone Over the Mediterranean Sea
Aden - The Israeli military announced Monday evening that it had intercepted a drone launched by Yemen's Houthis over the Mediterranean Sea, marking a significant escalation in the ongoing confrontation between the two sides. According to Israeli media, the drone was intercepted several kilometers off the coast of Tel Aviv. No injuries or damage were reported. The Houthis claimed responsibility, stating they had launched five drones—four targeting Eilat and one aimed at a 'military facility in Jaffa.' The incident comes just hours after the Magic Seas cargo ship sank in the Red Sea following a Houthi attack, suggesting a coordinated escalation across multiple maritime fronts. The Israeli army noted that no air raid sirens were activated, as the interception occurred outside Israeli airspace. This marks the first known instance of a Houthi drone reaching this far into the Mediterranean.

Iranian commander: Israeli occupier to receive graver response if commits new error
Tehran - Saba: The political assistant to the Commander-in-Chief of the Iranian Armed Forces, Brigadier General Rasoul Sanai Rad, confirmed that the Israeli occupation "will receive a greater response than it did during the 12-Day War if it commits any foolishness" against Iran. He revealed that Iran "did not use all of its preparations for the 3rd Promise". Sanai Rad, speaking to Al-Mayadeen TV as part of its coverage of "The Nation Won," on Sunday and reported by the Iranian News Agency (IRNA) on Monday, confirmed that Iran was prepared in anticipation of an attack against it and had produced scientific documents before the Israeli occupation targeted its scientific centers. He emphasized that Tehran "expected anything from the occupation and took the necessary steps and measures." In the same context, Sanai Rad indicated that the United States inflicted some damage on Iranian nuclear facilities, but "did not destroy Iran's nuclear program, as US President Donald Trump claims." Sanai Rad explained that nuclear science today is "in the minds of our children," adding that Iran possesses the expertise that will enable it to achieve qualitative leaps in the future. The Iranian official added that the Israeli occupation never imagined that Iran could target the Weizmann Institute, adding that the occupation's mistake was that it "thought we did not have information about the targets we were striking." Sanai Rad said that the Israeli occupation "thought it could eliminate the regime," explaining that dividing Iran "is part of the plan for the new Middle East." He continued that the United States intervened in the war "when what the Israeli occupation was doing became a scandal." Regarding the targeting of the American Al-Udeid base in Qatar, Sanai Rad said that the radar installed by Washington was "of the latest type," and "perhaps this is one of the reasons we struck the base." Sanai Rad also emphasized that the Supreme Leader of the Islamic Revolution "emphasized that it is impossible to surrender to bullying, and told (the Americans and Israelis) that Iran is too big a morsel for them to swallow." Regarding the current situation between Iran and the Israeli occupation, Sanai Rad explained that what has happened is "a cessation of military operations, not a ceasefire." The Iranian official also emphasized that the Israeli occupation "will receive a greater response than it received during the 12 days of the war, if it commits any foolishness" against Iran. He continued, "Be assured that if they commit any foolishness, the response will be more devastating than the destruction in Khan Younis." In addition, Sanai Rad revealed that Iran "did not use all of the equipment it had prepared for Operation True Promise 3," emphasizing that it "would have used missiles with greater destructive power had the war continued." Sanai Rad reassured that Iran "has assets, particularly missile assets, that enable it to confront the occupation for a long time," noting that the destruction the occupying entity witnessed during "Operation True Promise 3" "demonstrated the extent of the damage the Revolutionary Guards can inflict." In a related context, Sanai Rad emphasized that confrontations with spies inside Iran "have turned into professional confrontations". He also said that the resistance has become stronger after "Operation Flood of Al-Aqsa," through "acquiring practical experience in confronting the Israeli occupation."
