He stated that they do not test their weapons in drills, 'shooting in the air for no reason,' but rather by firing them at real targets.
Al-Shami also said that Yemen has approximately 10 million fighters armed and ready. If the borders were opened and Yemeni fighters were allowed to enter Palestine and fight, he asserted, there would be more fighters than the number of Jews in the world.

Houthis claim hypersonic missile strike on Israel
Shafaq News – Middle East The Yemeni Houthis Movement launched on Thursday a ballistic missile toward Israel. Houthi military spokesperson Yehya Saree stated that the armed forces carried out a 'qualitative military operation' in which the Palestine-2 missile unit targeted Lod Airport (Ben Gurion) near Tel Aviv with a hypersonic ballistic missile. He claimed the strike 'successfully achieved its goal,' causing 'millions of Zionist settlers to flee to shelters' and suspending airport operations. The Israeli army, however, announced that its air defense systems intercepted the missile before it reached Israeli territory. 🔴 بيان القوات المسلحة اليمنية بشأن عملية عسكرية نوعية استهداف مطار اللد في منطقة يافا المحتلة بصاروخ باليستي فرط صوتي نوع "فلسطين2" 20-02-1447هـ 14-08-2025م #ثابتون_مع_غزة #يمن_الواثقين_بالله — قناة المسيرة (@TvAlmasirah) August 14, 2025

Iraq: Candidate disqualifications for elections could reach 400
Shafaq News — Baghdad The number of excluded parliamentary candidates, including those barred under Iraq's de-Baathification process, could reach 400, lawmaker Raed al-Maliki said on Wednesday. Speaking to Shafaq News, al-Maliki attributed the surge to the first-time enforcement of Article 7(3) of the amended 2018 Election Law — which prohibits those convicted of crimes involving moral turpitude, financial or administrative corruption, or reputational damage, even if pardoned — and to a stricter application of Accountability and Justice Commission measures after years of 'relative lenience.' So far, more than 150 candidates have been disqualified. The Commission removed 55 candidates in Nineveh and 10 in Dhi Qar, while additional lists from Baghdad and Diyala include dozens more. The Independent High Electoral Commission (IHEC) continues to receive disqualification lists from verification bodies, which form the basis for its rulings.

Peoria, Illinois Sermon By Imam Mazhar Mahmood, Who Claims To Be 'Active In Interfaith Community': Muslims Must Not Build Political Ties With Zionists; The Jews Of Medina, In Their Carnal Desires, Plo
Imam Mazhar Mahmood of the Islamic Foundation of Peoria, IL, said in his August 8, 2025 Friday sermon that "alleged" Muslims suggest building "political situations" with the Zionists for the sake of stability, and he asked whether Muslims have "stooped so low." He prayed for Allah to liberate the Al-Aqsa Mosque from the "filth of the plundering Jews." Mahmood urged Muslims to understand their legacy and learn why the Prophet Muhammad expelled the Jews from Medina, telling a narrative from early Islamic days, of Jews harassing a Muslim woman. Mahmood, originally from Toronto, Canada, is also president of Peoria for Palestine. On his website, he claims to be "active in the interfaith community". Mazhar Mahmood: "Does anyone know why the Prophet kicked out the Jews from Medina – namely, Banu Qaynuqa – by their inception? Read history, my friends, understand what our legacy is. [...] "So, of course, the Jews detested this – that a woman dressing like the Muslims is present in their society. [...] "In their carnal desires, they were eager to get a glance at this woman, so they devised, they deliberated, they plotted. [...] "What they do is they take the bottom portion of her clothing and they tie it with her khimar, with her hijab, so when she gets up, what happens? Her bottom is revealed. [...] "How similar is today to yesterday, when you see hundreds of thousands of children and women, innocent men, falling, being starved to death, yet, some Muslims – alleged Muslims – say: 'We need to build political situations with these Zionists. We need to have political stability.' Have we stooped so low, my friends? Oh Allah, liberate the Al-Aqsa Mosque from the filth of the plundering Jews."
