Houthi Rebels Launch MASSIVE Missile Toward Israel After Syria Strikes | IDF Braces Three-Front War [Video]

Houthi Rebels Launch MASSIVE Missile Toward Israel After Syria Strikes | IDF Braces Three-Front War

Yemen's Houthi rebels (Ansarallah) have claimed responsibility for launching another significant missile attack toward southern Israel, triggering massive panic and sounding major air-raid sirens across the region. The group stated the attack was carried out in "solidarity with the people of Gaza." The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed the launch and announced that its air defence systems were activated, successfully intercepting the inbound missile before it could hit its target. This latest strike is part of a sustained campaign by the Houthis, who have vowed that such attacks will continue until Israel ends its military offensive and blockade of the Gaza Strip. According to reports, Ansarallah has fired over 50 missiles and drones toward Israel since the conflict resumed, frequently targeting critical infrastructure like the Ben Gurion Airport in previous attempts. This raises the critical question: Is Israel now fighting a three-front war, facing threats from Gaza, the north, and now consistently from Yemen? The attack comes amidst a volatile situation in the wider region. Israel has recently intensified its own strikes on Houthi targets in Yemen in response to their persistent attacks on international shipping in the Red Sea. In a major act of retaliation, the Houthis recently sank the UK-registered Magic Sea ship, a move that dealt a significant blow to global trade and maritime security. This video breaks down the latest missile attack, the successful Israeli interception, and the escalating cycle of violence that is pushing the Middle East to the brink. #YemenStrike #Syriaattacked #IsraelUnderAttack #HouthiForces #MiddleEastCrisis #MissileStrike #GazaBlockade #Airstrike #BreakingNews #YemenVsIsrael #BenGurionAirport #DroneAttack #HypersonicMissile #AirportStrike #YemenNews #IsraelNews #DefenseAlert #AirRaid #GlobalTensions Also Read Who Is Sheikh Abubakr Ahmad, the Grand Mufti of India?

‘Dog on the Leash of U.S’: Iran’s Khamenei HUMILIATES Israel; Warns of a BIGGER BLOW if Provoked

Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei sharply condemned Israel as a “dog on a leash” of the United States and warned that Iran is ready to deliver a far bigger retaliatory blow if attacked again, following recent US strikes on Iranian nuclear and military sites and Iran’s counterattack on a sensitive US base in Qatar. Khamenei praised Iran’s resilience and emphasized that Tehran approaches both diplomacy and military action from a position of strength. #Khamenei #Iran #Israel #DogOnALeash #BiggerBlow #USIranTensions #NuclearDeal #JCPOA #MiddleEastConflict #AlUdeidAttack #IranRetaliation #Trump #Diplomacy #MilitaryStrength #GlobalSecurity Also Read India Advises Its Citizens Against Non-Essential Travel To Iran :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-advises-its-citizens-against-non-essential-travel-to-iran-7802657.html?ref=DMDesc Israel's Troop Presence in Gaza Complicates Ceasefire Negotiations with Hamas :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-troops-gaza-complicates-truce-talks-011-7796581.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Gets Second Nobel Peace Prize Nod, Courtesy Israeli PM Netanyahu :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-gets-second-nobel-peace-prize-nod-courtesy-israeli-pm-netanyahu-011-7794565.html?ref=DMDesc

Iran SHOCKED: Top IRGC Commander Gheybparvar DEAD After Chemical Injuries | Khaemeni Vows Revenge [Video]

Iran SHOCKED: Top IRGC Commander Gheybparvar DEAD After Chemical Injuries | Khaemeni Vows Revenge

Iran's General Gheybpavar Dies Mysteriously, Israel's Hit On 20 Top Commanders Exposed | World News The Middle East is on high alert as the shadow war between Iran and Israel erupts into open conflict, with Tehran now mourning the loss of a key military figure. In a major development, prominent Iranian Brigadier General Gholamhossein Gheybpavar has died. While initial reports from Iran's Fars News Agency attribute his death to long-standing chemical injuries from the Iran-Iraq war, the timing raises critical questions. His passing comes in the immediate aftermath of "Operation Rising Lion," a massive, covert Israeli operation on June 13 that has reportedly sparked a full-scale war between the two nations. This operation is said to be the cause of death for nearly 20 other top Iranian commanders, making Gheybpavar's death highly suspicious. The Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) allegedly targeted critical Iranian infrastructure, including nuclear facilities, missile sites, and military bases across Tehran, Natanz, and Isfahan. The strikes were precise and devastating, with raids in Tabriz, Kermanshah, and Tehran successfully eliminating a significant portion of Iran's senior military leadership. This has created a power vacuum and a crisis within the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC). Brig. Gen. Gheybpavar was a formidable figure in Iran's military establishment, having previously led the powerful Basij paramilitary force and the IRGC's Fajr Corps. His death leaves a significant void, even as Iran scrambles to fill key leadership roles with a new generation of officers. The situation remains tense and unpredictable, with the world watching to see what happens next in the escalating Iran-Israel conflict. #Iran #Israel #GheyBparvar #IRGC #Basij #MiddleEastConflict #IranIsraelWar #IranNews #BreakingNews #OperationRisingLion #IranIraqWar #MilitaryLeadership #FajrCorps #IDFStrikes #IranCommanders #ChemicalInjuries #Tehran #Natanz #Isfahan #IranNuclearSites #MissileSites #IranArmy #IranWar #MiddleEastTensions #Geopolitics #WarNews #DefenseNews #IranianLeadership #IranIsraelConflict #MilitaryCrisis #GlobalSecurity Also Read India Advises Its Citizens Against Non-Essential Travel To Iran :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/india-advises-its-citizens-against-non-essential-travel-to-iran-7802657.html?ref=DMDesc Israel's Troop Presence in Gaza Complicates Ceasefire Negotiations with Hamas :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israel-troops-gaza-complicates-truce-talks-011-7796581.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Gets Second Nobel Peace Prize Nod, Courtesy Israeli PM Netanyahu :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-gets-second-nobel-peace-prize-nod-courtesy-israeli-pm-netanyahu-011-7794565.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.420~HT.408~

Iran has issued its most alarming nuclear warning yet, threatening to enrich uranium to 90%—weapons-grade level—and exit the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) if Western powers trigger the UN sanctions “snapback” mechanism.

Houthis Sink Ship, Kidnap Crew in Red Sea | U.S Demands Hostage Release or Face Brutal Attacks Now! [Video]

Houthis Sink Ship, Kidnap Crew in Red Sea | U.S Demands Hostage Release or Face Brutal Attacks Now!

On July 2025, Iran-backed Houthi rebels launched a deadly drone and missile attack on the Eternity C, a civilian cargo ship navigating the Red Sea. After sinking the vessel, the Houthis kidnapped several surviving crew members, prompting a swift condemnation from the U.S. State Department and calls for their immediate and unconditional release. The Houthi spokesperson claimed responsibility, announcing that the strike was "documented with audio and video proof" and carried out after the ship ignored multiple warnings. This attack follows a string of similar assaults on commercial vessels—including the Magic Seas—and signals a dramatic escalation in maritime warfare across strategic shipping lanes. With global trade routes under threat and regional tensions surging, the U.S. is now weighing full-scale retaliation as pressure mounts in Washington and Tel Aviv to respond. #HouthiAttack #RedSeaCrisis #EternityC #USNavy #IranProxyWar #MiddleEastConflict #MaritimeSecurity #CargoShipAttack #BreakingNews #YemenWar #HouthiHostages #MissileStrike #DroneAttack #NavalWarfare #USVsHouthis #GlobalShippingCrisis
