Israeli army says intercepted missile fired from Yemen
The Israeli military said Sunday it had intercepted a missile fired from Yemen, where Houthis have been launching strikes on Israel during its war against Hamas. 'Following the sirens that sounded a short while ago in several areas in Israel, a missile that was launched from Yemen was intercepted,' the Israeli army said in a Telegram post. The Houthis have regularly fired missiles and drones at Israel since the war in Gaza broke out in October 2023, following an attack on Israel by the Houthis' Palestinian ally Hamas. On Friday, Israel bombed the Houthi-held Red Sea ports of Hodeida and Salif following three missile attacks in as many days. It threatened to target the Houthi leadership if the attacks continued. The Houthi administration said the strikes 'will be met with a painful response', according to the Houthi-run Saba news agency. The Houthis, who control swathes of Yemen, have launched missiles and drones targeting Israel and Red Sea shipping throughout the Gaza war, saying they act in solidarity with Palestinians. Their firing on the shipping route drew retaliatory strikes by the United States. However, in early May, the United States sealed a ceasefire with the Houthis that did not include Israel.

"Resistance Committees": What is happening in Rafah is a war Crime
Gaza – Saba News: The Resistance Committees in Palestine declared on Thursday that the ongoing systematic destruction, demolition of buildings and homes, and forced displacement of residents in the southern Gaza city of Rafah constitutes a major war crime committed by the Zionist enemy entity. According to the Safa News Agency, the Resistance Committees stated in a press release that the occupation's intention to turn Rafah into a buffer zone through its policy of destruction, demolition, and forced displacement has become a tool of genocide, ethnic cleansing, and eradication, aiming to eliminate Palestinian presence in the Gaza Strip. The statement added that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is committing the most heinous acts of killing, massacres, and destruction, while enjoying impunity and a lack of accountability, amidst clear complicity and failure by the international community and its institutions. The Resistance Committees emphasized that the steadfast Palestinian people and their brave resistance will thwart all the Zionist enemy's schemes and conspiracies. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print

U.S. Senator: What is Happening in Gaza is Ethnic Cleansing & a War Crime
Washington – Saba News: U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders affirmed that the ongoing situation in Gaza constitutes ethnic cleansing and a war crime, in light of the continued Zionist aggression on the Strip since October 7, 2023. According to the Safa News Agency, Sanders stated in a press release on Thursday that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu supports former U.S. President Donald Trump's plan to force two million people out of Gaza, calling it 'voluntary migration.' Sanders emphasized that such a plan cannot be considered voluntary when it involves bombing and starvation. He reiterated that what is occurring in Gaza is ethnic cleansing and a war crime, declaring his opposition to any additional military aid to Netanyahu. The senator had previously attempted to block proposed arms sales by the Trump administration, including bombs and munitions worth $8.8 billion, as part of an effort to reduce U.S. military support for Israel. However, his efforts were unsuccessful. Whatsapp Telegram Email Print more of (International)
