Turkish presidency strongly condemns Israeli assassination of reporters
The Turkish presidency "strongly" condemned the Israeli entity's assassination of two Palestinian journalists in the Gaza Strip on Monday, indicating that the entity aims to cover up its genocide.
According to Anadolu Agency, Burhaneddin Duran, head of the Turkish presidency's communications department, expressed his deep sorrow via the X platform on Monday over Israel's killing of five journalists, including Al-Jazeera correspondents Anas al-Sharif and Mohammed Qreiqea, in an airstrike targeting a journalists' tent near Al-Shifa Hospital west of Gaza City.
Duran said, "I pray to God to have mercy on our journalist brothers who were martyred while performing their duty, and I offer my deepest condolences to their families."
He continued, "Israel targets journalists to obscure the view of its mass massacres, which it commits without discrimination between infants, children, women, the elderly, and the sick. It seeks to destroy humanity and the truth." He added, "I strongly condemn Israel's systematic targeting of journalists, which constitutes a war crime that violates international law. I also strongly condemn Israel's lawless brutality and its attempts to conceal the truth."
He added, "I remember with compassion the 237 journalists killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza since October 7, 2023. Israel will not be able to conceal this genocide and will be held accountable before the law."
On Sunday evening, Al-Jazeera correspondents Anas al-Sharif and Mohammed Qreiqea, along with three other members of the channel's crew, were killed in an Israeli airstrike that targeted a journalists' tent near Al-Shifa Hospital.
With the martyrdom of al-Sharif and his colleagues, the number of journalists killed in the Gaza Strip has risen to 237 since the beginning of the genocide perpetrated by the Israeli entity on October 7, 2023, according to the Government Media Office in the Gaza Strip.

Security Source to "Saba": Seizure of several "Starlink" devices & equipment used for espionage purposes
Sana'a - Saba: A source within the Security and Intelligence Agency revealed the seizure of several devices and equipment of generations of the satellite internet stations "Starlink" in recent days, which were smuggled into the liberated provinces for use in espionage and intelligence purposes on behalf of hostile foreign parties and entities. The source explained to the Yemen News Agency (Saba) that the government of the traitorous hypocrites in Aden licensed the seized "Starlink" satellite internet station devices in blatant violation of the sovereignty of the Republic of Yemen, and also made them available through sales points in the occupied governorates, while attempting to smuggle them into the liberated governorates to serve American and Israeli intelligence and their hostile activities targeting Yemen, at a time when Yemen is engaged in the battle of "Promised Victory and Sacred Jihad" against the Israeli enemy. The security source warned of the danger of using these banned devices, which are used in espionage activities by the enemy. He called on anyone possessing these prohibited devices to quickly hand them over to the Security and Intelligence Agency before measures are taken against them, as owning them is considered a crime of espionage punishable by law. The security source urged citizens to report any information or details related to these devices and equipment to the free Security and Intelligence Agency hotline at 100.

Al-Qassam Brigades Target Zionist Enemy Command Centers in Gaza and Rafah
Gaza - Saba: The Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas), announced on Monday that they had targeted two command-and-control centers belonging to the Zionist enemy forces—one east of Gaza City and the other south of Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip. In two separate statements received by the Yemeni News Agency (SABA), Al-Qassam stated: 1. They shelled an enemy command post on Al-Sawrani Hill east of the Al-Tuffah neighborhood in eastern Gaza City with mortar rounds. 2. They struck another enemy command center along the Salah al-Din Axis near Za'rab Hill south of Rafah using short-range "Rajoom" missile systems (114mm caliber). These operations come as part of the Palestinian resistance factions' response to the genocidal crimes committed by the Zionist enemy—with American backing—against the people of Gaza since October 7, 2023, including mass killings, starvation campaigns, systematic destruction, and forced displacement. The attacks continue despite international appeals and International Court of Justice (ICJ) orders demanding an immediate halt. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print
