Yemen's forces struck Israeli and U.S. ships in support of Palestinians facing an "Israeli genocidal war" in Gaza and in retaliation for U.S. aggression. They vowed operations to continue until the Gaza assault and blockade end. Recent U.S.-British attacks in Yemen killed 16, wounded 40.

Israel targeted a Gaza school, claiming it contained Hamas fighters, killing 27 civilians seeking shelter, which Hamas denied. Hamas leader Haniyeh rejected the U.S. ceasefire proposal, demanding a permanent Israeli withdrawal. Despite U.S. efforts, truce attempts failed as Hamas insists on a lasting deal while Israel wants only temporary pauses until defeating Hamas. The eight-month war erupted after a Hamas attack killed 1,200 Israelis.

"We will not be raising income tax or VAT or national insurance - these are the things that count most as people are trying to manage their work income and family budgets," Mr Healey said.
