Iran rejects ‘baseless’ US claim about Iran targeting chemical tanker off Indian coast | Oneindia
On December 25, an Iranian foreign ministry spokesperson dismissed the Pentagon's assertion of Iran's involvement in an alleged attack on a chemical ship off the coast of India as "groundless." This response comes in the wake of the United States military accusing Iran of a drone strike on the Japanese-owned chemical tanker MV Chem Pluto, described as "Israel-affiliated." Iran's foreign ministry spokesperson, Nasser Kanaani, addressed the accusations during a briefing, categorically rejecting them as baseless.
He urged Washington to confront allegations related to its involvement in Israel's actions in Gaza instead.
Kanaani characterised the claims as a deliberate effort to deflect public attention and to conceal what he described as the American government's unequivocal support for Israel's actions in Gaza.
The Israel-Hamas conflict has been marked by pivotal moments of violence and tension. The war escalated dramatically on October 7, 2023, when Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel during the Shemini Atzeret holiday, including the massacre at the Nova Music Festival. The assault, which involved a barrage of rockets and the infiltration of militants into Israel, resulted in the deaths of over 1,200 people, with families targeted in their homes in kibbutzim.
The brutal nature of this attack prompted Israel to declare a state of war, followed by a complete siege of Gaza. The humanitarian toll was staggering, with over 1.4 million Palestinians displaced in the ensuing weeks. The war continued with significant losses on both sides, including the deaths of high-ranking individuals such as Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar. On October 17, 2024, Sinwar was killed in an Israeli operation, marking a key turning point in the conflict

Yemen’s armed forces have intensified operations against Israeli military targets, including a successful strike on a site in Yaffa using the Palestine-2 hypersonic missile. This is part of their broader support for Palestinians amidst the ongoing conflict in Gaza. Yemen's actions also include drone strikes and missile launches aimed at Israeli installations and vessels in solidarity with Gaza’s resistance. Yemen’s military vows to continue these operations until Israeli aggression ends and the Gaza siege is lifted.

Yemen’s missile strikes have disrupted US-Israel strategy, says Iran’s FM. Yemen’s support for Palestine includes missile attacks on Israeli-occupied territories and US warships. Yemen remains self-reliant in its resistance, with Israel escalating strikes on Yemen infrastructure. The country continues direct military actions and has imposed a semi-blockade on Israel-linked ships.

Hamas has reportedly recruited 3,000 new fighters as part of its ongoing resistance strategy, according to sources familiar with the group's activities. These recruits are expected to bolster the group's capabilities in its guerilla warfare operations against Israeli forces. Reports also indicate that new tunnels are being constructed, potentially to enhance Hamas's strategic advantage and facilitate covert operations. This development comes amidst heightened tensions in Gaza, with the conflict showing no signs of de-escalation.
