Iran rejects ‘baseless’ US claim about Iran targeting chemical tanker off Indian coast | Oneindia
On December 25, an Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson dismissed the Pentagon's assertion of Iran's involvement in an alleged attack on a chemical ship off the coast of India as "groundless." This response comes in the wake of the United States military accusing Iran of a drone strike on the Japanese-owned chemical tanker MV Chem Pluto, described as "Israel-affiliated." Iran's foreign ministry spokesperson, Nasser Kanaani, addressed the accusations during a briefing, categorically rejecting them as baseless.
He urged Washington to confront allegations related to its involvement in Israel's actions in Gaza instead.
Kanaani characterised the claims as a deliberate effort to deflect public attention and to conceal what he described as the American government's unequivocal support for Israel's actions in Gaza.
A massive wildfire has broken out between Nazareth and Yafa an-Naseriyye in northern Israel, rapidly spreading due to intense heat, dry vegetation, and strong winds. The blaze, which threatened residential neighborhoods, agricultural lands, and commercial zones, prompted an urgent emergency response.
Over 11 firefighting teams and three aircraft were deployed to battle the flames from both ground and air. Israel Police joined efforts to evacuate roads and safeguard critical infrastructure. Fire and Rescue officials confirmed the firefront was halted just meters from the first line of homes, averting a major catastrophe.

A ballistic missile launched by Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen was intercepted over central Israel by air defenses. Sirens and early warnings alerted civilians as Ben Gurion Airport briefly shut down. The attack comes despite a US-Houthi truce, with Houthis vowing continued strikes until Israel ends its Gaza offensive. No injuries or damage were reported.

Iran’s IRGC Chief Gen. Mohammad Salami has issued a stern warning: Iran will strike any territory used to target its interests. His remarks come during the unveiling of a secret underground drone facility, amid escalating threats from Israel and the U.S. over Iran's nuclear program. With hypersonic missiles in play and talks stalled, Salami declared Iran’s unmatched readiness for full-scale war. He warned Israel of a devastating response worse than Operation True Promise if provoked. Tensions in the Middle East are rapidly intensifying.

The Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) launched major attacks on Israeli and U.S. targets, including the USS Truman and Israel’s Ramon Airport, in retaliation for the war in Gaza. This comes after Donald Trump claimed the Houthis “begged” him not to strike. The YAF's bold military move, involving drones and ballistic missiles, defies that narrative. An American F-18 crashed during the operation, intensifying the crisis. YAF has vowed further strikes if U.S. aggression resumes. Yemen warns Israel that air and maritime movements will remain under fire until the Gaza siege ends.
