Sayyed Houthi: Israeli Aggression on Iran Comes in Context of Targeting Its Model of Independence
Head of Yemen's Ansarullah Movement Sayyed Abdul Malik Badreddine Al-Houthi indicated that the Israeli aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran came within a broader Western effort that views Iran as an independent model supportive for the Palestinian cause. In a televised speech on the occasion of the Day of Wilaya, Sayyed Houthi said that the Israeli enemy, backed by the West, sees the Islamic Republic of Iran as a nation building a civilizational renaissance and an Islamic power. 'The Israeli, American, British, and their allies do not want any independent state among Muslims that does not submit to their authority. The Israeli enemy is criminal and audacious in committing such a heinous crime—an enemy with absolutely no justification for its aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran.' All the fabrications, pretexts, and excuses promoted by the Israeli enemy are utterly absurd. he said, highlighting the positions of Arab and Islamic countries united in condemning the Israeli aggression against Iran, as a good and positive development. In its aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran, the Israeli enemy violates the airspace of Arab countries without concern, Sayyed Houthi underlined, adding that the Ummah must restore the equation of deterrence against the Israeli enemy, rather than accepting the equation of unchecked aggression. 'The American, British, French, and the Western community in general seek only to contain the Iranian response. If the West fails to contain Iran's response through political pressure and other means, their direction will be to cooperate with the enemy to confront Iran's retaliation.' We in Yemen support the Iranian response and are partners in this stance with everything we can offer, Sayyed Houthi said, extending condolences to the Iranian leadership and people, and congratulations on martyrdom of a number of officials, experts and citizens. Sayyed Houthi affirmed that any Islamic country that engages in a confrontation with the Israeli enemy must be supported, as that is the true responsibility and interest of the Ummah. 'We continue to support Gaza, stand by the Palestinian people, and remain engaged in an open war with the Israeli enemy. Our stance is firm and ongoing as part of our jihadi duties in the path of Allah Almighty.' Iranian Armed Forces shot down Israeli drones on Saturday as the Zionist entity goes on with its aggression on the Islamic Republic for the second day.

Israel's attack could help me make deal with Iran, Trump tells Axios
Minutes before heading to the Situation Room for a strategy session on Iran, President Trump told Axios he believes Israel's massive strike likely improved the chances of a U.S.-Iran nuclear agreement. Israel just killed much of Iran's military leadership, targeted its top nuclear scientists for assassination, and is actively bombing the Islamic Republic's nuclear facilities and ballistic missile sites. Iranian officials have said explicitly that they blame the U.S. for the attack, along with Israel . The U.S. is preparing to defend against a potential Iranian retaliation on U.S. targets. What he's saying: Asked whether Israel's strike jeopardized his nuclear diplomacy, Trump told Axios: 'I don't think so. Maybe the opposite. Maybe now they will negotiate seriously.' Trump spoke with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Friday for the first time since the attack. But just hours before the attack began, Trump warned Israel not to do anything to 'blow' the chances of a deal. What to watch : In order to fully decimate the Iranian nuclear program, Israel needs to destroy an underground nuclear facility in Fordow that is built into a mountain.

Israel threatens to set Tehran on fire after Iranian retaliatory strikes

REUTERS/Ronen Zvulun By Maayan Lubell and Parisa Hafezi Summary Iran and Israel traded missiles and airstrikes on Saturday, the day after Israel launched a sweeping air offensive against its old enemy, killing commanders and scientists and bombing nuclear sites in a stated bid to stop it building an atomic weapon. In Tehran, Iranian state TV reported that around 60 people, including 20 children, had been killed in an attack on a housing complex, with more strikes reported across the country. Israel said it had attacked more than 150 targets. In Israel, air raid sirens sent residents into shelters as waves of missiles streaked across the sky and interceptors rose to meet them. At least three people were killed overnight. An Israeli official said Iran had fired around 200 ballistic missiles in four waves. U.S. President Donald Trump has lauded Israel's strikes and warned of much worse to come unless Iran quickly accepts the sharp downgrading of its nuclear program that the U.S. has demanded in talks that had been due to resume on Sunday. But with Israel saying its operation could last weeks, and urging Iran's people to rise up against their Islamic clerical rulers, fears have grown of a regional conflagration dragging in outside powers. The United States, Israel's main ally, helped shoot down Iranian missiles, two U.S. officials said. 'If (Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali) Khamenei continues to fire missiles at the Israeli home front, Tehran will burn,' Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz said. Iran had vowed to avenge Friday's Israeli onslaught, which gutted Iran's nuclear and military leadership and damaged atomic plants and military bases. Tehran warned Israel's allies that their regional military bases would come under fire too if they help shoot down Iranian missiles, Iranian state television reported. However, 20 months of war in Gaza and a conflict in Lebanon last year have decimated Tehran's strongest regional proxies, Hamas in Gaza and Hezbollah in Lebanon, reducing its options for retaliation. Gulf Arab states that have long mistrusted Iran but fear coming under attack in any wider conflict have urged calm as worries about disruption to the Gulf region's crucial oil exports boosted the price of crude by about 7% on Friday. Iranian general and parliament member Esmail Kosari said the country was seriously reviewing whether to close the Strait of Hormuz, the outlet for oil shipped from the Gulf. NIGHT OF BLASTS AND FEAR IN ISRAEL AND IRAN Iran's overnight fusillade included hundreds of ballistic missiles and drones, an Israeli official said. Three people, including a man and a woman, were killed and dozens wounded, the ambulance service said. In Rishon LeZion, south of Tel Aviv, emergency services rescued a baby girl trapped in a house hit by a missile, police said. Video showed teams searching through the rubble of one home. In the western suburb of Ramat Gan, near Ben Gurion airport, Linda Grinfeld described her apartment being damaged: 'We were sitting in the shelter, and then we heard such a boom. It was awful.' The Israeli military said it had intercepted surface-to-surface Iranian missiles as well as drones, and that two rockets had been fired from Gaza. In Iran, Israel's two days of strikes destroyed residential apartment buildings, killing families and neighbours as apparent collateral damage in strikes targetting scientists and senior officials in their beds. Iran said 78 people were killed on the first day and scores more on the second day, including when a missile brought down a 14-storey apartment block in Tehran. State TV said 60 people were believed to have been killed there, though the figure was not officially confirmed. It broadcast pictures of the aftermath, with the collapsed building flattened into debris and the facade of several upper storeys lying sideways in the street, while slabs of concrete dangled from a neighbouring building. 'Smoke and dust were filling all the house and we couldn't breathe,' 45-year-old Tehran resident Mohsen Salehi told Iranian news agency WANA after an overnight air strike woke his family. Fars News agency said two projectiles had hit Mehrabad airport, located inside the capital, which is both civilian and military. With Iran's air defences heavily damaged, Israeli Air Force chief Tomer Bar said 'the road to Iran has been paved'. In preparation for possible further escalation, reservists were being deployed across Israel. Army Radio reported units had been positioned along the Lebanese and Jordanian borders. IRANIAN NUCLEAR SITES DAMAGED Israel sees Iran's nuclear programme as a threat to its existence, and said the bombardment was designed to avert the last steps to production of a nuclear weapon. A military official on Saturday said Israel had caused significant damage to Iran's nuclear facilities at Natanz and Isfahan, but had not so far operated in another uranium enrichment site, Fordow. The official said Israel had 'eliminated the highest commanders of their military leadership' and had killed nine nuclear scientists who 'were main sources of knowledge, main forces driving forward the (nuclear) programme'. Tehran insists the programme is entirely civilian in line with its obligations under the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) and that it does not seek an atomic bomb. However, it has repeatedly hidden parts of its programme from international inspectors, and the International Atomic Energy Agency on Thursday reported it in violation of the NPT. Iranian talks with the United States to resolve the nuclear dispute have stuttered this year. The next meeting is set for Sunday. Tehran implied it would not attend but stopped short of pulling out. 'The other side (the U.S.) acted in a way that makes dialogue meaningless,' state media quoted foreign ministry spokesperson Esmaeil Baghaei as saying. 'It is still unclear what decision we will make on Sunday in this regard.' Reuters
