Houthis maintain pressure on Israel as US launches more strikes on Yemen

In response to Houthi forces’ third consecutive day of daily attacks on Yemen, Israel has intercepted a missile fired from the country.

Following the missile launch, the Israeli army announced on Saturday that it had activated air raid sirens in various parts of the country.

No serious injuries or harm was reported. Yahya Saree, a spokesman for the Houthis, claimed responsibility for the attack and claimed it was an Israeli operation in Gaza.

As Israel continues to occupy Gaza and the West Bank, the Houthis have increasingly targeted Israel and shipping routes in the Red Sea, claiming that their actions show Palestinians’ solidarity with them.

Prior to Israel blocking all aid into the besieged enclave in early March and the subsequent full resumption of the war, the Houthis did not carry out attacks during the earlier ceasefire in Gaza.

Meanwhile, the US conducted two airstrikes on Yemen’s Kamaran Island and as-Salif district in the Hodeidah port city, according to Houthi-affiliated Al Masirah TV’s report on Saturday.

The Ras Isa oil port in Hodeidah’s as-Salif district was the site of seven US attacks, according to the same news outlet. At least 80 people were killed and 150 were hurt in a US strike on the same port last month, according to one of the deadliest attacks by US forces on the nation.

The US has also launched its largest military operation in the Middle East since January when it launched its airstrikes against Yemen.

Although US forces claim to have struck Houthi positions, numerous civilian casualties have occurred.

The US’s high civilian casualties are alarming everyone in increasing numbers. Between 27 and 55 civilians were killed in March alone, according to the UK-based monitor Airwars. The death toll for April is anticipated to be higher.

According to Houthi sources, at least 68 African migrants perished in a single overnight strike on Monday, along with additional casualties reported in the capital.

The prime minister of Yemen resigns

Political unrest is waning in Yemen as the conflict gets worse.

The internationally renowned government’s prime minister, Ahmed Awad bin Mubarak, resigned on Saturday, citing ongoing difficulties, including his inability to reshuffle the cabinet.

Mubarak’s departure, according to government insiders, was caused by a power conflict with Rashad al-Alimi, the leader of the Presidential Council.

According to the state-run SABA news agency, the presidential council appointed finance minister Salem Saleh bin Braik as prime minister shortly after the announcement. Without addressing his claims, the council also appointed bin Mubarak as a ruling body’s advisor.

The ongoing conflict in Yemen has had a significant impact on Mubarak’s political career. He gained notoriety after being abducted by Houthi fighters in 2015 while serving as Abd-Rabbu Mansour Hadi’s chief of staff.

‘I saw Southampton breaking and the ref down, so I blew his whistle’

This video is not playable.

JavaScript must be enabled in your browser to play this video.

Leicester City legend, champion of the Premier League, winner of the FA Cup, and now, for the time being, play the role of the referee.

Jamie Vardy intervened when ref David Webb fell to the floor after Jordan Ayew hit him with a shoulder-barge in Leicester’s 2-0 victory over Southampton at King Power Stadium.

By blowing the stricken official’s whistle as Webb held his face to the ground, he had the chance to halt a Saints attack.

Vardy smiled while telling BBC Match of the Day that he had seen Southampton breaking down the left and that the ref was down.

Webb was able to leave the pitch unaided despite being unable to continue and being replaced by fourth official Sam Barrott.

Vardy, 38, was clearly in good spirits after scoring Leicester’s opening goal in the 17th minute with a sharp finish.

His 199th goal for Leicester, the organization he’s leaving from his previous club at the end of the summer, will be his last.

The striker will reach the 200-goal mark in his 500th appearance for the club and establish himself as one of Leicester’s greatest players with three more games to go this season.

When Vardy inquired about what Leicester meant to him, Vardy responded, “It’s been everything.

For 13 years, it has been the life of my family and mine. The fans and the entire city have taken us in, and it has meant the world to me personally.

PA Media

Leicester will play Vardy’s final few games, according to legend.

Vardy’s goal brought his 200-goal streak to an end, as well as his own nine-game home-goal drought.

Jamie had to be the only player who could break this cycle, according to Leicester manager Ruud van Nistelrooy.

” Goal number 199. Very crucial for him and the entire team to lead.

Vardy, an ex-england international, said he couldn’t predict what his future holds. He announced last week that he would leave the club.

Vardy, who has played for Leicester 498 times, said, “I am enjoying my football and I need a nice break to mentally and physically recharge.” We’ll see where that goes after that, Vardy said.

There are still a few more games, with the hope that some more numbers will be added.

Vardy’s final season at Leicester has been disappointing, with only five victories in 35 games. On April 20, their relegation to the Championship was announced.

Conor Coady, a Leicester defender, predicted that Vardy would dominate the final three games of the season. He said he was pleased to call him a “team-mate.”

I won’t beat around the bush, Cowdy said, “The next few games are about him.”
