Islamic Unification Movement in Lebanon: Yemeni missile that targeted Ben Gurion Airport proves failure of American air defense systems
The Islamic Unification Movement in Lebanon expressed its "pride and honor in our blessed Yemen, and in the position of honor and loftiness attained by loyal Muslim Arabs who declared war and hostility against the Zionists and Americans, in defense of their oppressed brothers in Lebanon and Palestine."
The Islamic Unification Movement said in a statement, "It is as if the holy verse refers to Yemen and its people, and refers to their foreheads and forelocks. 'You did not throw when you threw, but Allah threw.' The victorious Yemeni missiles, not the last of which was the projectile that landed in the heart of Ben Gurion Airport, represented a blessed divine strike and a divinely guided path, they represent a defeat for the mobilization of Western technology and a failure for the consolidation of American air defense systems, which are described as the most advanced on the face of the Earth."

Palestine Resistance condemns Israeli attacks on Yemeni capital
Gaza - Saba: The Palestinian Resistance Committees condemned, on Sunday, in the strongest terms, the new criminal Zionist aggression on the Yemeni city of Sana'a and the bombing of a power station there, which clearly reflects the state of bankruptcy and confusion the Zionist entity is experiencing. In a statement received by the Yemeni News Agency (Saba), the committees affirmed the failure of all attempts by the Zionist enemy to counter the qualitative strikes launched by the Yemeni armed forces deep inside the Zionist entity. They stated that the continued Zionist targeting of civilian targets in Yemen proves that the Zionist entity is incapable of confronting the Yemeni armed forces and that this criminal entity is only adept at attacking civilian assets. This demonstrates a major intelligence failure that has dogged it since the launch of the Yemeni Support Front for the Palestinian People and their Resistance in Gaza. The committees declared their full and necessary solidarity with Yemen, its people, and its armed forces, praising their steadfastness and resilience. The committees affirmed that Yemen will always remain dear, resistant, and a genuine supporter and backer of Palestine, at a time when everyone has failed to support the starving and afflicted people of Gaza, who have been facing the Zionist holocaust and genocide for more than 22 months.

Israel Strikes Houthi energy facility in Yemen
Israel has launched a targeted military strike on a Houthi-controlled power facility near Sanaa, Yemen, escalating tensions in the region. The Israeli military confirmed the attack, stating it was in response to repeated missile and drone launches by the Iran-backed Houthi group against Israeli territory and shipping lanes in the Red Sea. The strike reportedly hit the Haziz power plant in the Sanhan district south of Sanaa, causing temporary outages and fires at the site. Local Yemeni media and Houthi-affiliated sources described the attack as an act of aggression against civilian infrastructure, with no immediate reports of casualties. Israel's Defense Forces (IDF) emphasized that the operation targeted "energy infrastructure used by the Houthi terrorist regime," citing the group's ongoing campaign of attacks launched in solidarity with Palestinians since the Gaza war began in October 2023. The Houthis have intensified their military actions in recent months, targeting Israeli-linked vessels in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden, and launching ballistic missiles toward Israel. Despite a ceasefire agreement with the United States in May, the group vowed to continue its campaign against Israeli interests. This latest strike marks a significant escalation in Israel's military posture in the region, raising concerns about broader conflict involving Iran-backed militias and international shipping routes.

US praises Yemeni forces led by Tariq Saleh for foiling Houthi weapons smuggling attempt
The US has praised Yemeni forces led by Gen Tariq Saleh for intercepting a shipment of weaponry allegedly smuggled to Houthi rebels. US Central Command said security forces confiscated drones, jet propulsion systems, wireless devices, and advanced control components on August 6 from the Port of Aden. The cargo, bound for the Houthi-controlled port of Hodeidah, was uncovered during a joint inspection by counterterrorism, customs, and police units. Officials said the operation was co-ordinated with the public prosecutor and port authorities. Led by Gen Saleh, Yemen's National Resistance Forces (NRF), which carried out the operation, is a coalition of anti-Houthi forces loyal to the internationally recognised government. Gen Saleh, a nephew of the late president Ali Abdullah Saleh, is an army commander. He is a member of the presidential council of Yemen and played a leading role in coastal battles against the Houthis before becoming a central figure in the Red Sea forces. The US accuses Tehran of smuggling advanced weapons to the Houthis, a charge Iran denies. In recent years, US and allied naval patrols have intercepted shipments of Iranian-made drones, cruise missile components, and small arms believed to be headed to the Houthis. Experts said these supplies have enabled the rebels to expand long-range strikes on shipping lanes and regional targets, including western warships in the Red Sea.
