Story: Yemen-Israel conflict over Israel's war on Gaza; 12-09-2024;

Israel, Tel Aviv is no longer a safe city Houthis.

• Yemen's rebel group Houthi military says that Tel Aviv is no longer a safe city.

"We are now saying that Tel Aviv is no longer a safe area, we will respond to Israel's recent escalation and we will not hesitate to target vital infrastructure" - Yahya Saree.

Houthi-run media say Israeli air strikes have targeted oil storage facilities in the Yemeni port city of Hodeidah and that there are an unspecified number of fatalities and injuries.

The Israeli military says it struck “military targets” of Houthis in response to attacks on Israel. On Friday, a drone attack claimed by the Houthis killed one person in the centre of Tel Aviv, occupied Palestine, and wounded at least 10 others. According to a report by Aljazeera

Yemen's firm support to Gaza:

Houthis reacted on the bombing by Israel air force, that Yemen's Houthi military operations in support of the Palestinian people, will remain firm. Houthi political bureau member Mohammed al-Bukhaiti says, warning they will instead increase until the war in Gaza ends.

“The Zionist entity will pay the price for targeting civilian facilities, and we will meet escalation with escalation,” al-Bukhaiti said in a post on X.

Yemen is one of the few countries who are militarily supporting Gaza defending against Israel's barbaric genocide.

Yemen’s Houthi rebel group have been conducting attacks on vessels in the Red Sea, and many times fired projectiles, including long range ballistic missile to Israel.

Houthis are attacking vessels linked to Israel, in the Red Sea, the Bab al-Mandeb strait and the Gulf of Aden as part of what they say is a campaign of solidarity with Palestinians suffering under Israel’s war in Gaza.

The attacks have disrupted global trade and forced shipping companies to reroute their vessels. In response, the US and UK have been conducting air strikes in Yemen for months. The military campaign, however, has failed to stop the Houthi attacks.

• Yemen's Houthis say they are preparing for a long war with Israel.

Houthis bombing Tel Aviv:

The Yemen's Houthi rebel group fired suicide drone from a distance of 2,000km [1,242 miles] and it penetrated all the defence systems of Israel, including Iron Dome and hit a location just near the US embassy, as many reports claim.

This shows a psychological defeat and a threat to the Israel and its willingness to continue with the genocide war. In the drone attack one person reportedly killed, and at least seven people were injured.

The attack was done with the newly developed Yafa drone, Yemeni Armed Forces spokesperson Brigadier General Yahya Saree declared early Friday. The drone is named after the Palestinian city occupied by "Israel" as part of greater Tel Aviv.

Pakistan declares Netanyahu a terrorist, welcomed by Hamas:

On Friday, Pakistan’s government said it considered Netanyahu a “terrorist” and demanded he be brought to justice for war crimes against Palestinians.

Rana Sanaullah a government adviser to Pakistan's Sharif government on political and public affairs. has said “Netanyahu is a terrorist and a perpetrator of war crimes,”

Hamas hails Pakistani move to declare Netanyahu a ‘terrorist’ Hamas has issued a statement saying it welcomes, “the Pakistani government’s decision that Israel is an entity that has committed war crimes and its criminal prime minister is a terrorist”.

Houthi Supreme Political Council

The Houthi Supreme Political Council says there will be an “effective response” to Israel’s air strikes on Hodeidah.

“Our stance for the support and victory of the Palestinian people stems from our principles, beliefs and religion. We will not falter or back down. We will continue this support, God willing, and there will be more significant hits on our enemy,” the council said in a statement.
