BREAKING | Tel Aviv Hit by Houthi's Thulfiqar Ballistic Missiles | Israel's Defense Ministry Hit

In a dramatic escalation of hostilities, Houthi forces launched a precision missile strike on Tel Aviv, targeting Israel’s Ministry of Defense. The attack, carried out using Thulfiqar ballistic missiles, marks a significant intensification in the ongoing conflict. While Israel’s air defense systems intercepted some of the missiles, the strike still caused damage to key infrastructure. Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Sarea claimed the missiles hit their target with high accuracy, evading Israeli interception. This attack is seen as part of the Houthis’ ongoing support for Hamas and their solidarity with Palestinian efforts in Gaza. The missile strike follows a series of Houthi drone and missile assaults on Israel, signaling an even more volatile situation in the region. No major casualties were reported, but the strike adds to the growing tensions as Israel prepares for a ceasefire agreement with Hamas. #TelAvivAttack #HouthiMissiles #ThulfiqarMissile #IsraelDefenseMinistry #HouthiStrike #BallisticMissiles #MiddleEastTensions #HamasSupport #PalestinianSolidarity #IsraelAirDefense #GazaConflict #IsraelUnderAttack #HouthiEscalation #DefenseMinistryHit #MiddleEastCrisis

Mysterious Airstrip on Yemeni Island Sparks Fears Amid Houthi Attacks and Regional Tensions |Details

A mysterious airstrip nearing completion on Yemen’s remote Abd al-Kuri Island raises regional security concerns. Satellite images suggest the UAE is behind the project, potentially to counter Houthi rebel attacks that threaten global shipping routes.

Assam Coal Mine Disaster Day 3: 48 Hours On, Several Miners Trapped | Latest Updates

A body has been recovered from a flooded coal mine in the 3 Kilo area of Umrangso, where nine workers became trapped on January 6. Despite ongoing search and rescue efforts by teams, including a joint diving team and the Indian Navy deep divers, conditions remain harsh within the 300-foot-deep mine, significantly reducing chances of survival. The mine is believed to be illegal, and one person has been arrested in connection with the incident.
