💢 Houthi leader tells his supporters that “turning a blind eye offers no protection” as war appears to widen
Abdul-Malik al-Houthi said Yemen is on “full alert” as the war on Iran continues, warning in a video address today that no country can assume it will remain untouched.
🔹 He described Yemen’s stance on Iran, Lebanon, and Palestine as a “principled position” against Israel, saying Sanaa is ready for “any developments” and that “all options at the military level are on the table”
🔹 He warned the American-Israeli escalation reflects a deliberate strategy, calling this a “crucial and defining moment” in confrontation with “Israel… Western powers, and, at the forefront, the United States and its allies”
🔹 “Turning a blind eye… offers no protection,” he said to the people of Yemen and the region, calling passivity in the face of events “profound ignorance”
🔹 He said the war on Iran is part of a broader effort to “reshape the Middle East” and establish “Greater Israel,” accusing the U.S. of relying on regional bases and allied support
🔹 He also claimed the “Epstein” scandal was used by the United States to pressure ideological alignment and support for Israel, describing the Trump administration, including the defense secretary, as a “Zionist” formation
🔹 He described Iran’s actions as “legitimate self-defense,” and criticized Arab media for what he said is distorted coverage of Tehran’s role
🔹 He described Hezbollah’s fight in Lebanon as legitimate defense after months of Israeli attacks, calling for unity as the conflict deepens
He warned the region is entering a “crucial and defining moment,” urging vigilance at home as the scope of the conflict continues to expand.

Yemen leader Al-Houthi: "It is not permissible under Islamic law to remain shackled and not respond to the worst enemy. Iran is fulfilling a human, Islamic, moral, and national duty -- a duty by every measure -- in confronting an unjust and brutal aggression that targets it without right and without any justification." "They target children in schools and teachers; they target universities; they target residential neighborhoods; they target schools and hospitals; they target markets; they target everything." "It is the duty of this entire nation to stand in full support alongside the Islamic Republic of Iran." "Our position is one of principled enmity toward the Israeli enemy, and full commitment to resisting this entire onslaught by the arms of Zionism: America, Israel, and those aligned with them. The enemies' course is escalation and expansion. All options are on the table."

Palantir co-founder Joe Lonsdale apparently still believes the Minab elementary school was hit by a "failed Iranian missile," a belief that is not supported by *any accounts*

🔺 NEW: IRGC fires 66th wave of missile strikes on Israel, after 13 waves on Thursday
Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said it carried out its latest wave of Operation True Promise 4 at 1:20 am on Friday, using “super heavy,” precision, and multi-warhead missile systems targeting:
▪️ the “heart, and the south” of Israel
▪️Tel Aviv
▪️ U.S. military bases in the region.
🔸The IRGC said the barrage used solid- and liquid-fuel systems including Qadr, Khorramshahr, Kheibar Shekan, Qiyam and Zulfiqar missiles, along with drones, and described the operation as successful, though the claims could not be independently verified.
🔸It said the wave was carried out as a tribute to Qassem Soleimani, Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, and other “martyrs” killed in past conflicts.
🔸The readout from Fars news, which is aligned with the IRGC, said the “life of sirens to sirens and prolonged confinement” in shelters continued for Israelis, and it reflects the “most prominent achievement” of Israel’s war cabinet and U.S. President Donald Trump.

Israel’s military said Iran launched another late-night missile attack just before midnight, marking the 13th alert in a single day, and according to the AP one of the most intense days of the war so far.
Sirens sounded across a wide swath of central Israel, from the Mediterranean coast to the Dead Sea, as air defenses were activated to intercept incoming missiles.

From Shaiel’s analysis below 👀 “Independent satellite analysis suggests that a significant portion of the "80% destruction" claimed by the IDF actually hit high-fidelity decoys.”
Shaiel Ben-Ephraim@academic_la
I talked to two Israeli sources on why Iranian launches continue to increase, despite US-Israeli claims that they have destroyed almost all of the launchers. Here is what they said: 1) The 90–95% drop in volume claimed by CENTCOM earlier in the month was probably a temporary lull as Iran repositioned its remaining launchers into hardened sites. Independent satellite analysis suggests that a significant portion of the "80% destruction" claimed by the IDF actually hit high-fidelity decoys. 2) Despite fewer launchers, the lethality per strike has increased. Iran's shift to cluster warheads has allowed a single missile to impact multiple locations simultaneously, compensating for the lower volume of launches 3) Iran has successfully set up mobile, underground units able to fire at steady rates. Iran used that quiet period to move their remaining ~100-120 heavy launchers into "Super-Hardened" facilities 4) Iran is utilizing its Zolfaqar and Dezful road-mobile launchers. These units move from hardened tunnels to pre-surveyed launch spots, fire, and return underground in under 10 minutes, often before coalition drones can re-task for a strike. 5) Because these launching units are decentralized, it is very hard for US and Israeli intelligence to get info on them. Israel and the United States do not have an answer to this problem. That is why they are trying escalation on energy sources instead. But that is backfiring.

🗺️ G7 allies signal coordinated response to Hormuz disruption
The UK, France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Japan said they are preparing security and energy measures to confront Iran’s“de facto” closure of the Strait of Hormuz, according to a joint statement.
🔸The group said it is ready to support maritime security efforts: “We express our readiness to contribute to appropriate efforts to ensure safe passage through the Strait.”
🔸They also signaled coordination with oil producers to offset supply shocks, saying: “We will take other steps to stabilize energy markets, including working with certain producing nations to increase output.”
The leaders condemned Iran for attacks on commercial vessels and oil and gas infrastructure and called on Iran to halt mining, drone, and missile activity targeting shipping, saying the disruption of energy supply chains “constitute a threat to international peace and security.”
The statement did not mention U.S. or Israeli efforts in their unprovoked regime change war that preceded Iran’s escalation in the strait.

🇾🇪💢 Houthi leader: “All options…are on the table”
Some key comments:
🔸 On the objectives of the war:
“The American-Zionist aggression against the Islamic Republic of Iran comes because they consider it the greatest obstacle in this Ummah.
The enemies are trying to remove the Islamic Republic because they hope to be able to control the situation in the region in general.
It is very clear in America and in the West that the ongoing aggression against the Islamic Republic is a Zionist aggression within the framework of Zionist beliefs.
The main headline of the Zionist aggression against the Islamic Republic is reshaping the Middle East and establishing ‘Greater Israel.’”
🔸 On the U.S. administration:
“The official composition in the Trump administration, including what is referred to as the Secretary of War, is a Zionist composition.
The U.S. Secretary of War is one of the most prominent believers in Zionism, adhering to its ideology and actively working to implement its plans.
The so-called Zionist U.S. Secretary of War openly and explicitly adopts hostility toward Islam and Muslims, and even insults the Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him and his family).
The U.S. Secretary of War advocates for an American crusade against Muslims, and has authored a book years ago under that title.”
🔸 On their position:
“Our stance toward the aggression against Iran, Lebanon, and Palestine, and the violation of holy sites, is a principled position of hostility toward the Zionist enemy and a commitment to exert efforts to confront it.
We affirm our support for Iran, Lebanon, Palestine, and the holy sites, and our readiness at the military level as required by developments on the ground.
All options at the military level are on the table.
Escalation and the expansion of aggression are the path of the enemies in their actions in the region, and this is what we observe through our monitoring of events and our tracking of the enemies’ directions.”

Yemen leader al-Houthi: "If surrender were the right choice, the Quran would have said: 'When the Jews attack you -- surrender" "Even animals can tell enemy from friend by instinct. Yet Arab leaders still see their worst enemies as friends... utter FOOLISHNESS."
