In a shocking turn of events, Israel has launched one of its biggest and most daring strikes on Yemen’s capital, Sana’a, killing Houthi Prime Minister. The attack marks a staggering escalation in the Israel-Houthi conflict, as Israeli fighter jets targeted key Houthi leadership inside the heart of Sana’a. Houthi PM’s assassination not only sends shockwaves through Yemen but also rattles the balance of power across the Middle East. The Houthis, already engaged in a fierce standoff with Israel, have vowed retaliation after what they call a “cowardly act of aggression.” Analysts believe this move could trigger an unprecedented regional backlash, dragging Iran and other actors further into the conflict. With growing tensions in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden, this development raises questions: Has Israel made its biggest mistake yet? Or is this a strategic masterstroke? The fallout could redefine the Middle East battlefield.

Israel has launched a major airstrike on Yemen’s capital Sana’a, with the IDF claiming to target top Houthi leaders inside a key assembly building. Explosions ripped through the city within minutes, fueling speculation that Israel directly struck Houthi command structures in retaliation for recent missile attacks on its territory.

In a fiery intervention at the United Nations, China accused Israel of being the “occupying power” in Gaza and demanded an immediate halt to its plans to seize Palestinian land. Speaking at the UN, Chinese Deputy Permanent Representative Geng Shuang warned that Israel’s intentions would further inflame regional tensions and undermine peace efforts. He sharply criticized Israel for showing “low political will” toward any genuine action for peace, accusing Tel Aviv of escalating the conflict instead of resolving it. China reaffirmed its support for a two-state solution and emphasized the urgent need for the international community to hold Israel accountable. The strong remarks mark one of Beijing’s boldest positions yet on the Gaza crisis, underscoring its growing influence in Middle East diplomacy. Israel has yet to respond formally, but the comments highlight widening global divisions over Gaza and the future of the Palestinian territories.

Trump Vs BRICS: In a move set to rattle global markets, former President Donald Trump has issued a severe warning to the BRICS nations and their allies. He threatens to impose a blanket 10% tariff on any country adopting what he terms "anti-American" policies backed by the bloc. This declaration comes after the 2025 BRICS Summit in Brazil, where the member nations, now numbering ten, issued a joint condemnation of recent US-Israel strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities, calling them "illegal."
The BRICS bloc, now representing 45% of the global population and 35% of the world's GDP, has become a significant geopolitical force. In their summit, they also criticized the West's "double standards" on global terror, specifically citing the Pahalgam attack in Kashmir as an example. This direct reference brings the conflict to India's doorstep. Trump claims the tariff letters for 12 countries are already "signed and ready," though sources suggest this could be a strategic bluff to test the bloc's unity.
This escalating tension is rooted in BRICS's core mission: to reduce dependence on the U.S. dollar. With their internal trade hitting $1 trillion in 2025 through local currency systems, the bloc, heavily influenced by China and Russia, is seen as a direct challenge to America's sanctions power and its dominance via institutions like the IMF and G7. For Trump, the bloc's growing anti-West stance and expanding economic influence represents a primary threat to American global leadership, setting the stage for a potential economic war.
