Houthis BLASTS Israel’s Beersheba Key Sites With Hypersonic Missile | Civilians FLEE To Shelters

Just days after a major ceasefire between Iran and Israel, the Houthi rebels have resumed their missile attacks. Air raid sirens sounded in southern Israel after a ballistic missile, launched from Yemen, reportedly struck near Beersheba. Houthi leadership claims the strike is retaliation for Israel’s ongoing operations in Gaza. With over 25 missiles and drones launched this month alone, the group warns of continued attacks until Israeli offensives stop. The renewed violence threatens to derail ceasefire negotiations, even as President Trump promises a Gaza truce “by next week.” #IsraelUnderAttack #HouthiForces #MiddleEastCrisis #MissileStrike #GazaBlockade #Airstrike #BreakingNews #YemenVsIsrael #BenGurionAirport #DroneAttack #MahdiAlMashat #MilitaryTensions #HypersonicMissile #ConflictUpdate #AirTrafficDisrupted #InvestorWarning #RetaliationStrike #MiddleEastWar #GazaSupport #IDFAirports #InternationalCrisis #NoFlyZone #AirportStrike #YemenNews #IsraelNews #DefenseAlert #AirRaid #GlobalTensions Also Read 'You Got Beat To Hell': Donald Trump On Iran's Victory Claim :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/you-got-beat-to-hell-donald-trump-on-irans-victory-claim-7785327.html?ref=DMDesc Mystery Shrouds Over Supreme Leader Khamenei’s Whereabouts As Iran Faces Military Crisis :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/mystery-shrouds-over-supreme-leader-khamenei-s-whereabouts-as-iran-faces-military-crisis-7783667.html?ref=DMDesc Iranian Citizens Contemplate Future After 12-Day War and US-Brokered Ceasefire :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/12-day-war-ceasefire-iran-future-concerns-011-7783479.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.410~ED.103~GR.125~

Houthis Vow to Sink U.S Warships | Iran Blames Israel for 'Great Crime'|Khamenei Warns of Punishment [Video]

Houthis Vow to Sink U.S Warships | Iran Blames Israel for 'Great Crime'|Khamenei Warns of Punishment

Tensions in the Middle East are spiraling. Iran has denied launching the missile intercepted by Israel near Eilat, claiming it was fired by Yemen’s Houthi rebels. Meanwhile, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Khamenei warns Israel of severe punishment for what he called a “great crime” — referring to Israel and America’s recent strikes on Iran’s nuclear sites. The Houthis have issued direct threats against U.S. warships in the Red Sea, declaring full support for Tehran and vowing retaliation. With Iran’s next missile wave still pending under “Operation True Promise-3,” the region is bracing for a major escalation.

Iran Says 935 Killed In IDF’s Airstrikes |Israeli Claims Considered ‘False’ After Iran’s Death Toll? [Video]

Iran Says 935 Killed In IDF’s Airstrikes |Israeli Claims Considered ‘False’ After Iran’s Death Toll?

Iran’s judiciary has reported that 935 people were killed during the 12-day Israeli aerial bombardment, according to forensics data cited by state media. Among the dead are 132 women and 38 children, indicating the significant civilian toll. The Israeli military has stated it targeted Iranian military leaders, nuclear scientists, and facilities, including suspected nuclear development sites. While Israel claims its strikes were strategic and defense-oriented, Iranian officials have condemned them as indiscriminate and brutal, escalating tensions in an already fragile region. The death toll adds weight to calls for international accountability and raises questions about the conduct of war and proportionality in military engagements. The 12-day conflict marked one of the most intense escalations between the two nations, with ripple effects across the Middle East. As both countries navigate the aftermath, Iran is pushing for diplomatic and legal responses while also reinforcing its defense capabilities. #Iran #Israel #MiddleEastConflict #Airstrikes #CivilianCasualties #IranIsraelWar #BreakingNews #IranJudiciary #AsgharJahangir #MilitaryTension #NuclearStrike #IsraelAirForce #ProIranCoverage #UNResponse #HumanRights #WarCrimes #MiddleEastNews #WomenAndChildrenKilled #TelAviv #IranianDefense Also Read Mumbai Reports First Death Due To Guillain-Barré Syndrome (GBS), Toll Raises To 8 :: https://www.oneindia.com/mumbai/mumbai-reports-first-death-due-to-guillain-barr-syndrome-gbs-toll-raises-to-8-4068983.html?ref=DMDesc Maharashtra Ordnance Factory Blast: Death Toll Rises To 8; Rajnath Singh, Gadkari Express Condolence :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/maharashtra-ordnance-factory-blast-death-toll-rises-to-8-rajnath-singh-gadkari-express-condolence-4051689.html?ref=DMDesc Jalgaon Train Accident: Revised Death Toll Reaches 12, Seven Victims Identified as Nepalese :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/jalgaon-train-accident-toll-revised-to-12-seven-nepalese-victims-011-4051165.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~GR.125~

VIDEO: Iran's Indirect Threat to U.S To Kill IAEA Nuclear Inspectors During Inspection | US News

Tensions between Iran and the IAEA have escalated after Tehran refused to guarantee the safety of nuclear inspectors, citing recent U.S. and Israeli airstrikes. Iran has suspended cooperation with the UN watchdog and rejected IAEA Chief Rafael Grossi’s request to visit bombed nuclear sites. Accusing Grossi of bias and “facilitating” attacks, Iranian officials warned that further IAEA demands could be deemed hostile. The standoff marks a serious deterioration in relations following the June 13 strikes on Iran’s nuclear infrastructure. #IranIAEA #IranNuclear #IAEAInspectors #RafaelGrossi #IranTensions #UNWatchdog #NuclearStandoff #MiddleEastCrisis #USIsraelStrikes #IranForeignMinistry #NuclearPolitics #BreakingNews #IranVsWest #GrossiVsIran #IAEATensions #Tehran #NuclearFacilities #IranSecurityWarning #IranNuclearProgram #IAEAViolations Also Read Iran Casts Doubt on Israel's Ceasefire Commitment, Warns of Retaliation :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-casts-doubt-on-israels-ceasefire-commitment-warns-of-retaliation-011-7786853.html?ref=DMDesc Stop Disrespectful Tone Towards Khamenei If Trump Wants Deal: Iran Tells US :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/stop-disrespectful-tone-towards-khamenei-if-trump-wants-deal-iran-tells-us-011-7785407.html?ref=DMDesc 'You Got Beat To Hell': Donald Trump On Iran's Victory Claim :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/you-got-beat-to-hell-donald-trump-on-irans-victory-claim-7785327.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.408~
