On February 6th, the United States military announced that they had conducted a defensive strike against two Houthi drones in Yemen.

This action came in response to a drone attack targeting a base housing US troops in Syria.

According to the US Central Command, American forces detected the presence of explosive unmanned surface vessels (USVs) in areas controlled by the Houthi rebels in Yemen.

These USVs were deemed to pose an imminent threat to US navy ships and merchant vessels operating in the region.

The Central Command emphasised that these measures were taken to safeguard freedom of navigation and enhance the safety of international waters.

Iran's Khamenei Says Hezbollah, Hamas, Houthis Act Independently, Rejects ‘Proxy Force’ Accusations

Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has rejected claims that groups like Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis act as proxy forces for Tehran. Speaking on Sunday, Khamenei emphasized that these groups operate independently based on their own interests and decisions, while acknowledging Iran’s support for their causes. Hezbollah in Lebanon, Hamas in Palestine, and the Houthis in Yemen are often accused by Western nations of serving as Iran’s regional proxies to expand its influence. However, Khamenei dismissed such accusations, stressing that these organizations are motivated by local grievances and ideological commitments, not Iranian directives. #Iran #Khamenei #IranProxies #MiddleEast #Hezbollah #Hamas #Houthis #ProxyForce #IranianPolicy #RegionalConflicts #Geopolitics #IranSupport #IndependentGroups #MiddleEastTensions #IranianInfluence #AyatollahKhamenei Also Read Syria's Future: Insights from the Arab Spring's Democratic Transitions :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/syrias-future-lessons-from-arab-spring-nations-011-4022149.html?ref=DMDesc Iran Halts Implementation of New Stricter Headscarf Law Amid Protests Concerns :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-pauses-strict-headscarf-law-implementation-011-4018843.html?ref=DMDesc Iranian Singer Parastoo Ahmady Arrested For Performing In Online Youtube Concert Without Hijab :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/iran-singer-arrested-performing-online-concert-without-hijab-011-4016049.html?ref=DMDesc ~PR.152~ED.103~HT.336~GR.121~

US Military Launches Airstrikes on ‘Iran-Aligned Sites’ in Syria, Day After Attack on Command Center

The US military has launched a series of airstrikes targeting sites in Syria associated with Iran-aligned groups, a day after an assault on America’s largest command centre in the region. The strikes, conducted by US Central Command, were in retaliation for recent attacks on US personnel stationed in Syria. Centcom emphasised that the action was a direct response to the escalating violence aimed at American forces, underscoring the US's commitment to protecting its troops and partners in the region. The airstrikes, which hit multiple sites believed to be linked to Iranian-backed militias, aim to degrade the ability of these groups to plan and execute future attacks against US forces. The US military presence in Syria, primarily focused on combating ISIS remnants, has faced increasing threats from Iran-aligned militias, complicating efforts to stabilise the region. Centcom's statement reinforced that such attacks on US forces would not be tolerated, sending a strong message to Tehran-backed militants. The escalation comes amid growing tensions in Syria, where Iran-backed groups maintain a significant presence, particularly in the east. #USMilitary #IranAlignedGroups #SyriaAirstrikes #MiddleEastTensions #USStrikes #Centcom #IranBackedMilitias #SyriaConflict #USForces #IranSyria #MilitaryRetaliation #USIranTensions #CommandCenterAttack #IranProxyWar #SyriaSecurity
