Major General Abdollahi, Commander of the Khatam al Anbiya Central Headquarters:

“The principle that we had previously demonstrated to the enemy as operational is, from this moment onward, the definitive and officially declared equation of the battlefield: for every proud citizen of the Islamic Republic of Iran who is martyred, one american servicemember will be sent to hell. We have prepared free, one way tickets straight to hell for you.”

ℹ️ | Referring to the group as "Houthi" rather than their chosen name, Ansar Allah (Supporters of Allah), is considered reductive and by the movement itself, derogatory because it deliberately boils a broad national, religious, and political movement down to a single family surname, the al-Houthi family (originating from their founder, Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi). This framing was originally popularized by former Yemeni president Ali Abdullah Saleh during the Sa'dah wars in the 2000s to paint them as a localized tribal militia or rogue clan rather than a legitimate opposition government. By stripping away "Ansar Allah," the label erases the millions of non-Houthi-family supporters, delegitimizes their self-defined spiritual and anti-imperialist identity, and positions them strictly as a proxy or rebel faction rather than a major governing force, even though international media continues to use "Houthis" simply as a practical shorthand for global audiences.

When it comes to pronunciation, the standard English version is HOO-thee (/ˈhuː.θi/), where "HOO" rhymes with blue or who and "thee" uses a soft "th" sound as in think (or HOO-theez when pluralized), while in native Yemeni Arabic it is pronounced al-ḤOO-thee with a deep, raspy "H". However, many argue that it should be termed and pronounced as Hoosee instead, as this matches how millions of conversational Arabic speakers, regional dialects like Egyptian or Levantine, and French speakers naturally pronounce the term, making Hoosee a smoother, more accessible alternative in everyday speech.

🇾🇪 ❌ 🇸🇦 | Saudi Arabia launches widespread strikes across Hodeidah after Ansarallah targets Saudi vessel in the Red Sea:

Yemeni forces targeted the Saudi vessel NCC MASA while it was navigating through the Red Sea. According to multiple reports, the vessel sustained direct hits, resulting in minor structural damage to its hull. Saudi state television confirmed that the ship had been targeted and suffered limited damage. An official source from the Saudi Public Transport Authority also acknowledged the attack, stating that the vessel, belonging to a Saudi company, sustained minor damage to its hull. The Saudi Press Agency later repeated the same assessment, while additional reports confirmed that the vessel was operating with its Automatic Identification System (AIS) switched on when it was struck. Explosions were also reported in the Bab al-Mandab Strait during the incident.

Shortly after the attack on the Saudi vessel, Saudi warplanes launched a widespread series of airstrikes across Hodeidah Governorate in western Yemen. Initial reports described explosions across Hodeidah as Saudi fighter aircraft flew overhead. Yemeni media reported Saudi aggression against eastern Hodeidah, while Al Mayadeen confirmed that Saudi airstrikes targeted the Port of Hodeidah. Several reports indicated that the strikes were carried out in response to the targeting of the Saudi vessel in the Red Sea. Updated reports stated that Saudi strikes targeted fuel storage tanks at Hodeidah Port as well as locations in eastern Hodeidah. At least four airstrikes reportedly struck objectives in and around the city, primarily focusing on Hodeidah Port. Additional strikes targeted facilities belonging to the Communications Corporation in Hodeidah. A worker was reportedly injured in a building affiliated with Yemen’s Ministry of Communications during the attacks. Separately, Saudi raids also targeted Kamaran Island in Hodeidah Governorate, where a woman was reportedly injured according to Yemeni and Al Mayadeen reports.

Amin Hayyan, Director of the Office of the Yemeni Armed Forces spokesperson, stated that Saudi aggression had begun targeting Hodeidah Port and warned that “they have opened the gates of divine hell upon themselves.” The Yemeni Ministry of Foreign Affairs declared that the Saudi regime bears full responsibility for all consequences resulting from its actions, adding that instead of responding to Yemen’s legitimate demand to lift the blockade, Saudi Arabia had committed a grave act of recklessness that would carry a heavy price. The ministry further stated that the Saudi attacks had transformed the principle of “tit-for-tat” into the defining characteristic of the coming phase. According to Yemen’s official Saba News Agency, citing a source in the Ministry of Defense of the Sana’a government, Yemeni air defenses forced several Saudi fighter jets to withdraw from Yemeni airspace during the operation.

🇮🇷 🔻🏴‍☠️ | Iranian retaliation expands across Bahrain, Kuwait and Erbil:

In the past hours, Explosions were reported in northern Kuwait, followed later by additional explosions shaking other parts of the country. Reports also emerged of explosions in Erbil, Iraq, where renewed strikes reportedly targeted bases and headquarters of Kurdish separatist terrorist groups.

Meanwhile, Bahrain came under another wave of Iranian ballistic missile and drone attacks. Videos reportedly captured the moment an Iranian missile struck its target, while additional footage showed columns of smoke rising from the vicinity of the american base in Juffair. Reports stated that armored vehicles belonging to the american military moved through Manama following the impacts. At least one ballistic missile impact was reported, although some sources suggested that a malfunctioning Patriot interceptor may also have fallen inside Bahraini territory. Later reports claimed that a Patriot interceptor struck the Al Juffair military base, followed by further explosions and the detonation of american Patriot air defense missiles over Bahrain. Additional explosions were reported across Bahrain before sources declared that the latest phase of the Iranian attack had concluded.

Reports also stated that ambulances were dispatched to the headquarters of the american Fifth Fleet after the facility was reportedly struck by Iranian missiles. According to further reports, an Iranian Fateh-110 short-range ballistic missile (in photo) directly hit the Fifth Fleet headquarters in Bahrain, with claims that there was no interception by american Patriot air defense systems.

🇮🇶 | Iraqi military deployments raise concerns over mounting pressure on the Resistance:

Hours ago, heavy Iraqi military deployments have been reported in Baghdad and the nearby city of Baqubah. Reports claim that forces from the Baghdad Operations Command stormed the headquarters of the Special Operations Command affiliated with Shaykh Akram al-Kaabi, leader of the Harakat al-Nujaba movement, in the Jurf al-Nasr area.

This reportedly comes after several warnings from Iraqi Prime Minister Ali Al-Zaidi directed at the PMF and Iraqi Resistance factions, demanding that all their weapons be handed over to the state. According to the same alleged claims, Iraqi security forces are moving to prevent the Resistance from continuing to launch drones or rockets toward the Kurdistan Region of Iraq and neighboring Persian Gulf states.

Reports also describe a large Iraqi military convoy moving through the streets of the capital, particularly in Sadr City, Jamila, and Talbiyah, with the city reportedly resembling a military barracks. An Iraqi security source claimed that, this morning, a force belonging to the Baghdad Operations Command, accompanied by members of the Second Division of the Ministry of Defense, moved toward one of the headquarters of the Islamic Resistance in the Jurf al-Naddaf area after receiving information alleging the presence of drones inside the facility. The force was reportedly unable to enter after those inside objected, and eventually withdrew from the site after some time.

The event was described as:

At approximately 5:30 PM yesterday, a joint security force consisting of elements from the Iraqi Army, Popular Mobilization Forces (PMF) Security, and the Federal Police arrived at the headquarters of the Nujaba Movement’s Special Missions Regiment in the Jurf al-Nadaf area, southeast of Baghdad, to conduct a search operation. Upon the force’s arrival, officials at the headquarters refused them entry and informed them that they must leave the premises. As the security force remained positioned outside the gate, armed personnel emerged from inside the headquarters and fired warning shots into the air, leading to the disarming of members of the approaching force. Shortly afterward, calls were received from the PMF leadership, and official orders were issued directing the withdrawal of the PMF Security and Iraqi Army units. It was later clarified that the deployment had been part of a broader security plan and was not specifically intended to search the Nujaba headquarters. Following this clarification, all security forces withdrew from the area without conducting the search operation.

Whatever the real reason may be, it is clear that american pressure on Iraq is mounting once again against the Islamic Resistance and its capabilities, which is indeed a concerning issue. We now have to wait for official statements from the Resistance factions...

🇮🇶 | Trump increases pressure on Iraqi Kurdistan as regional energy agreements deepen American influence:

According to Al Mayadeen’s correspondent in Sulaymaniyah, the Trump administration has reportedly warned officials in the Iraqi Kurdistan Region that if they refuse to participate in a war against Iran, the region’s current autonomous status could be abolished or fundamentally altered. In connection with these claims, the leader of the separatist group Kurdistan Organization of Iran reportedly stated that american intermediaries had contacted the group and that it is now seeking military assistance from america, including weapons, explosives, and advanced equipment. Iran, which has repeatedly warned Kurdish authorities against allowing such a conflict to emerge from their territory, has continued carrying out drone and missile strikes against the positions of separatist armed groups in the Kurdistan Region.

At the same time, another development has drawn attention. About a week ago, the Syrian occupation signed two memoranda of understanding with Iraq and a coalition of international companies to rehabilitate and revive the Kirkuk-Baniyas crude oil pipeline. Notably, the agreements were signed at the american Chamber of Commerce in Washington, rather than in Damascus or Baghdad. Even if international companies are involved, the fact that the agreements were concluded under Washington’s auspices raises broader questions about american influence over regional economic projects. Critics argue that Washington seeks to position itself as the indispensable gatekeeper through which major political and economic arrangements in the region must pass, and that it aspires to impose a similar framework on Iran. However, this approach has failed with Iran because Iran refuses to bow. For Tehran, dignity and sovereignty matter more than submission, and that has remained a defining feature of its policy despite sustained deadliest military, economic, and political pressure.
