Israel heavy losses

Israel has confirmed more deaths among its forces in the battles with Palestinian resistance fighters on the ground in the Gaza Strip. A military spokesman of the regime says two dozen soldiers were killed during an intense fighting in Gaza on Monday. He said 21 of them died after a rocket-propelled grenade hit a building they were in. Three others were killed in a separate Palestinian operation that targeted an Israeli tank with a mortar shell. More than a dozen troops were also injured on the same day. The latest fatalities push the overall death toll among Israeli troops to 221 since the start of the ground operation. Last week, Israeli media reported that at least 4,000 troops have become disabled. Palestinian sources say the regime undercounts its losses amid fear of the Israeli public anger.

Iraq resistance hits Israel

The Islamic Resistance in Iraq says it has launched new strikes on Israeli targets in response to the regime’s genocide in the Gaza Strip. The Iraqi resistance says it has targeted Israel’s Ashdod Port in the occupied Palestinian territories with drones. There are reports of an explosion in the port possibly caused by the strike. The resistance group has also conducted yet another attack on a US military base in Syria's eastern Dayr al-Zawr province. The base was hit with a barrage of rockets, for the third time in the past 24 hours. Over the past several months, Iraqi resistance forces have carried out almost daily attacks on US bases in Iraq and neighboring Syria, as well as Israeli targets in the occupied territories. The Islamic Resistance says the attacks will continue as long as the Israeli regime, with the US support, continues its genocide in Gaza.

US-UK aggression on Yemen

The US and the UK have carried out a fresh round of strikes on Yemen despite criticism that such aggression violates the sovereignty of the Arab country. The spokesman of Yemen’s armed forces said, 12 strikes hit the capital Sana’a while three others targeted the city of Hudaydah. Yahya Saree added, that there was also one strike on the city of al-Bayda. Yemeni officials say the strikes were launched after a US military cargo ship was hit in the Gulf of Aden. Washington has denied an attack had taken place on its vessel. That’s while Yemenis earlier announced that they regard as legitimate targets American and British interests in and around the Sea, following the start of the aggression against Yemen, about two weeks ago. The US-led strikes are aimed at protecting the Israeli maritime interests. Yemen has been carrying out attacks on Israeli-linked ships in the Red Sea over the regime’s onslaught on Gaza and its blockade of the coastal Palestinian strip.
