๐พ๐ช๐ธ๐ฆ - Ansarullah struck Saudi's East-West oil pipeline at Pumping Station 8, near Medina, west Saudi Arabia.
Massive plumes of smoke are visible, with fires blazing for at least 8+ hours.
The pipeline was intended to bypass the Strait of Hormuz. With the pipeline reportedly ruptured and al-Houthi forces controlling Mocha on the Bab el-Mandab coast, the oil market could spiral into chaos. Crude prices have already been climbing throughout the day in response to the developments in Yemen.

Ansar Allah forces have captured the towns of Dhubab and Murad, completing the liberation of Yemen's entire Red Sea coastline.
The Aden-based units refused to let the withdrawing troops enter with their weapons โ a standoff that exposes just how completely the anti-Houthi coalition has fractured.
The UAE and Saudi Arabia spent years building competing forces in southern Yemen, and now those forces are pointing guns at each other while Ansar Allah consolidates behind them.

โ๏ธTrump says war on Iran will end after midterms, claims US is holding back full assault
US President Donald Trump admitted during a Fox News interview that Washington is deliberately withholding a full-scale military onslaught against Iran to safeguard political leverage ahead of the 3 November midterm elections.
Trump went on to dismiss any notion of strategic remorse over the ongoing US aggression, stating that he would repeat every action taken and predicting the war will wrap up shortly after the polls close. He also brushed off reports that the confrontation could stretch until the end of his term as inaccurate.
Defending the current scale of aggression while acknowledging that Iran retains a missile inventory, Trump claimed the military campaign successfully dismantled Iranian nuclear ambitions that he alleged posed an existential threat to regional stability.

โ๏ธHezbollah fighters waged fierce underground defense of strategic Ali al-Taher ridge against invading Israeli forces
Israeli occupation forces reportedly destroyed a sprawling 5.4-kilometer network of underground tunnels beneath the Ali al-Taher ridge in southern Lebanon, deploying roughly 1,100 tons of explosives after months of intense combat.
According to a Maariv report citing military sources, the multi-decade subterranean infrastructure, was attacked by Israel following an operation involving Israeli commando units and the Yahalom combat engineering corps.
Throughout the prolonged offensive, occupation troops faced stiff resistance from dozens of entrenched Lebanese resistance fighters who engaged in close-quarters combat rather than surrendering the strategic high ground.
Despite intense bombardment and heavy encirclement tactics by the Israeli army, the fighters maintained defensive positions while securing vital supply routes under severe fire. Occupation officials acknowledged that the fighters rejected ultimatums to surrender, choosing instead to hold their positions along the crucial southern defense corridor.

If Iran had nuclear weapons, we would have reached out to them and said, "Sir, could we meet?"
We would treat them completely differently. (We wouldnโt attack them.)
Sigh.

๐ต๐ธ๐ฑ๐ง BRICS has issued some of its strongest collective language yet on Palestine and Lebanon in the new New Delhi Declaration.
On Palestine, BRICS explicitly rejects the forced displacement of Palestinians from Gaza and warns against any political or security arrangement that could prejudice their โinalienable rightsโ or โlegitimize or prolong occupationโ (Board of Peace).
The bloc reaffirms the Palestinian right to self-determination and the right of return, supports Palestine becoming a full member of the United Nations, and calls for an independent and sovereign Palestinian state on the 1967 borders, encompassing Gaza and the West Bank, with East Jerusalem as its capital.
BRICS also rejects โany attempt at temporary or permanent forced displacementโ of Palestinians and any effort to alter Gazaโs territory or demographic composition.
Perhaps most significantly, the declaration states plainly:
โWe reiterate that international law and international judicial bodies demand the end of the illegal occupation.โ
The declaration condemns starvation as a method of warfare, attacks on civilians and civilian infrastructure, and restrictions on humanitarian assistance. It reiterates support for UNRWA and references the proceedings before the International Court of Justice concerning Israelโs obligations under the Genocide Convention.
On Lebanon, the language is equally direct.
BRICS condemns continued violations of Lebanonโs sovereignty, territorial integrity and ceasefire arrangements and explicitly calls Israeli troops remaining on Lebanese territory โoccupying forces.โ
โWe call on Israel to respect the terms agreed with the Lebanese government and to withdraw its occupying forces from all of the Lebanese territories, in which they remain.โ
BRICS also reiterates its support for Lebanonโs sovereignty and territorial integrity, backs UNIFIL and condemns attacks against UN peacekeepers and their facilities.
This is significant because it isnโt simply a statement from Russia, Iran, China or another individual member.
This is consensus language adopted by BRICS as a bloc in New Delhi rejecting the forced displacement of Palestinians, demanding an end to the โillegal occupation,โ reaffirming Palestinian statehood with East Jerusalem as its capital, and explicitly demanding that Israel withdraw its โoccupying forcesโ from Lebanon.
