‘ARM PALESTINIANS NOW’: Houthi Urges Arab Nations To Defend Gaza Against U.S. and Israel

Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi issued a fiery warning, urging all Arab nations to arm every Palestinian in defense against what he calls the U.S.-enabled “genocidal war” on Gaza. He claims Washington is supplying Israel with weapons while turning a blind eye to mass civilian deaths, medical facility destruction, and Gaza's forced displacement. As Rafah faces encirclement, al-Houthi warns Egypt’s national security is at risk. The Houthis blame Arab regimes for past disarmament and call for immediate military support to Palestinian resistance groups. Israel, backed by the U.S., continues strikes across Gaza and Lebanon. #Houthi #Gaza #Israel #Palestine #USPolitics #MiddleEast #WarOnGaza #AbdulMalikAlHouthi #Rafah #Resistance #ArabWorld #GazaWar #IsraelStrikes #Ceasefire #ArabNations #AnsarAllah #Hezbollah #QassamBrigades #QudsBrigades #MiddleEastConflict #GazaCrisis #HumanitarianCrisis #Zionism #ArmsSupply #USWeapons #TelAviv #IsraelGaza #Displacement #PalestinianResistance #GlobalTensions Also Read Netanyahu Warns Hamas As Israel Strikes Gaza Amid Truce Collapse: 'Negotiations Only Under Fire' :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/netanyahu-warns-hamas-as-israel-strikes-gaza-amid-truce-collapse-negotiations-only-under-fire-4098633.html?ref=DMDesc Israeli Airstrikes Have Killed At Least 200 People In Gaza, Health Officials Say :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israeli-airstrikes-have-killed-at-least-200-people-in-gaza-health-officials-say-4097629.html?ref=DMDesc Explainer: How Israel’s Growing Entry Restrictions Are Blocking Doctors and Aid Workers from Gaza :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/explainer-how-israels-growing-entry-restrictions-are-blocking-doctors-and-aid-workers-from-gaza-4096773.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.410~

The White House has issued a clarification on the explosive 245% tariff targeting Chinese imports. The new addendum reveals a two-tier structure—some goods will face the full 245%, while others remain at 145% for now. Trump’s administration has unleashed a historic wave of tariffs, including legacy measures from his first term, Biden-era expansions, and new 2025 hikes. China’s Foreign Ministry spokesman Lin Jian condemned U.S. pressure, warning of firm retaliation. From lithium batteries to squid and syringes, the fallout is just beginning. China says it’s open to talks—but not to blackmail. #Trump #TariffWar #USChina #245PercentTariff #TradeCrisis #ChinaResponse #WhiteHouse #LinJian #EconomicWar #ImportTax #GlobalTrade #USPolitics #BreakingNews #Trump2025 #TariffUpdate #BidenEraTariffs #LithiumBattery #ChinaExports #SyringeTax #PharmaTariffs #TradePressure #ChinaRetaliation #SquidTariff #SweaterTax #TariffShock #ForeignPolicy #TariffClarification #TradeBattle #USTR #TrumpVsChina #GlobalMarkets Also Read Lebanon and Syria Agree to Ceasefire Following Two Days of Border Clashes :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/lebanon-syria-ceasefire-agreement-border-clashes-011-4097569.html?ref=DMDesc Why Is New Syrian Regime Hunting Down And Killing Alawites Amid Escalating Sectarian Violence In Country? :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/why-is-new-syrian-regime-hunting-down-and-killing-alawites-amid-escalating-sectarian-violence-in-cou-4090547.html?ref=DMDesc Syria On Boil: Over 1,000 Dead As Alawite Minority Targeted In 'Revenge Killings' By Current Regime :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/syria-on-boil-over-1-000-dead-as-alawite-minority-targeted-in-revenge-killings-by-current-regime-4090369.html?ref=DMDesc ~ED.194~HT.410~GR.124~

Israel Declares INDEFINITE Military Stay In Gaza, Lebanon & Syria| 'Protecting Settlers' the goal [Video]

Israel Declares INDEFINITE Military Stay In Gaza, Lebanon & Syria| 'Protecting Settlers' the goal

Israel's Minister of Military Affairs, Israel Katz, has declared that troops will remain in Gaza, Lebanon, and southern Syria indefinitely. He claimed this military presence serves as a "buffer" to protect Israeli settlers. Despite ceasefires and truce deals, Israel continues occupying territory, intensifying operations in Gaza while rejecting peace negotiations. Katz's statement signals a long-term strategy of control, not just retaliation against Hamas. Since March 18, over 1,600 Palestinians have been killed following Israel's resumption of military operations, part of a broader campaign that has killed over 51,000 since October 7. #Israel #Gaza #Lebanon #Syria #MiddleEastConflict #IsraelKatz #IDF #MilitaryOccupation #Hamas #Ceasefire #Hostages #WarOnGaza #Palestine #IsraelNews #BreakingNews #Geopolitics #InternationalLaw #HumanRights #Hezbollah #OccupiedTerritories #GazaUnderAttack #MiddleEastPolitics #UNResponse #PeaceProcess #MilitaryStrategy #PermanentOccupation #SettlerViolence #TruceViolation #WarCrimes #GazaCrisis Also Read Rawhi Mushtaha, Hamas Govt Chief In Gaza, 'Eliminated' In Israeli Airstrikes :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/rawhi-mushtaha-hamas-govt-chief-in-gaza-eliminated-in-israeli-airstrikes-3951135.html?ref=DMDesc Israeli Military Chief Signals Potential Ground Operation Amid Escalating Tensions with Hezbollah :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israeli-military-prepares-ground-operation-lebanon-011-3945045.html?ref=DMDesc Israeli Military Drafting Ultra-Orthodox Men May Destabilize Netanyahu's Government :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/israeli-military-to-draft-ultra-orthodox-men-011-3880659.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~GR.344~
