IDF strikes Houthi energy infrastructure, including Haziz power station in Sanaa

At least two explosions were heard in the Yemeni capital Sanaa near a power station, residents said early on Sunday. The IDF struck an energy infrastructure site that was used by the Houthis in Yemen, the military confirmed on Sunday morning. According to the IDF, the strikes were conducted in response to repeated attacks by Houthis against Israel and Israeli civilians, including launching surface-to-surface missiles and drones toward Israeli territory. Army Radio reported that the Israel Navy struck in Yemen and targeted the Haziz power station. The report compared the strike to an earlier one this year in the port of Hodeidah. The Houthi-run Beirut-based Al Masirah TV reported earlier that a power plant south of the Yemeni capital Sanaa was hit by an "aggression," knocking some of its generators out of service. The Yemeni channel did not identify the source of the reported "aggression." Senior Houthi leaders were at the power station at the time of the strike, according to a report by UK-based outlet The Telegraph. Teams were working to put out a fire caused by the incident, Al Masirah added, citing a source in civil defense as saying. At least two explosions were heard earlier in Sanaa, residents said. Videos of the explosion showed clouds of smoke and flames erupting from an unidentified structure. Houthis have been striking Israel for months Israel has been carrying out airstrikes in Yemen in response to the Houthis' attacks on Israel. The Yemeni group has been firing missiles toward Israel, most of which have been intercepted, in what they describe as support to Palestinians during the Israel-Hamas War. The US and the UK had also previously launched attacks against the Houthis in Yemen. In May, the US announced a surprise deal with the Houthis where it agreed to stop a bombing campaign against them in return for an end to the group's shipping attacks, though the Houthis said the deal did not include sparing Israel.

GOP-led states sending National Guard troops to D.C.

The Republican governors of three states announced they will send state National Guard personnel to Washington, D.C., at the Trump administration's request. The big picture: The deployment of hundreds of additional troops, who will join the 800 already mobilized in the nation's capital, marks a major escalation in President Trump's takeover. Driving the news: South Carolina Gov. Henry McMaster authorized the deployment of 200 Guard personnel from his state to support federal law enforcement activities, according to a Saturday statement. The deployment, per his office's statement, comes at the request of the Pentagon's National Guard Bureau and will be funded by the federal government under Title 32. Zoom out: Some 300 to 400 West Virginia Guard personnel will also be deployed to the District at the administration's request, Gov. Patrick Morrisey announced. "West Virginia is proud to stand with President Trump in his effort to restore pride and beauty to our nation's capital," he said in a statement. Those troops will be joined by 150 military police from the Ohio National Guard, sent by Gov. Mike DeWine, multiple outlets reported. Catch up quick: Trump on Monday announced a federal takeover of the District's police and deployment of National Guard troops in his push to crack down on crime and homelessness in D.C. Trump's memorandum, signed Monday, directed Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to coordinate with state governors to authorize additional Guard units as needed. The president has cast his crackdown as an effort to "take our Capital back," describing rampant lawlessness in a city where violent crime is trending down. Zoom in: The D.C. National Guard members — who, unlike Guard personnel in other states and territories, report to the president — have "broad latitude," Hegseth told Fox News Monday, but he noted they won't be involved in law enforcement functions. But if police aren't around, Hegseth said he "will have their back to ensure they can take the necessary action to protect citizens of D.C. and to protect themselves." He said troops could remain in D.C. for weeks or months but emphasized that it's "the president's call." Pentagon press secretary Kingsley Wilson told reporters Thursday that those personnel will not be making arrests, but they may "temporarily limit the movement of an individual who has entered restricted or secured area without permission."
