The US launched air attacks on Yemen’s Houthis, with President Donald Trump warning that “hell will rain down” over attacks on Red Sea shipping. At least 24 people have been killed, Al Jazeera reports.
The attacks come after the Houthis threatened to resume attacks on Israel-linked ships in the Red Sea over the total blockade of the Gaza Strip, which has now entered its third week.
Israeli forces continue attacks on Gaza despite the ceasefire, killing at least nine people including relief workers and journalists, in a drone strike on Beit Lahiya.
Liberty News’ international correspondent reports that Gaza’s Health Ministry says at least 48,543 Palestinians have been confirmed killed and 111,981 wounded in Israel’s war on Gaza. Gaza’s Government Media Office has updated its death toll to more than 61,700, saying thousands of Palestinians missing under the rubble are presumed dead. At least 1,139 people were killed in Israel during the Hamas-led October 7, 2023, attacks, and more than 200 were taken captive.
