#Israel shoots down #missiles and #drones after #Iran launches unprecedented #attack

Iran had vowed to retaliate after an #airstrike on an Iranian #consulate in #Syria earlier this month killed seven Iranian #military officials. It is the first time that Iran has launched an attack on Israel from Iranian soil, Israeli officials said.
What is a moral #dilemma?
If you supply one warring party with weapons and ammunition and the other party with relief supplies for civilians. You symbolically send airplanes to drop bombs on the one hand and relief supplies on the other.

Escalation of the Conflict in the Red Sea: New Coalition Strikes on #Yemen⚡️
🗓 By morning, more detailed data appeared about the massive 👉 night attack of coalition forces on targets of the Ansarallah group as part of Operation Poseidon Archer.
▪️ The Houthi press service said that a total of 48 missile strikes were carried out, most of which fell on the provinces of Sana'a, Taiz and Al-Hodeidah. Al-Bayda, Al-Hijjah and Al-Saada were also affected.
▪️ This correlates with nightly information from local Yemeni sources, who named in detail the settlements in which missile arrivals were noted.
🔹 The coalition mainly used Tomahawk sea-based cruise missiles (about 30), as well as F/A-18E/F and FGr.4 Typhoon carrier-based aircraft from #Akrotiri.
❗️However, as before, despite the massive nature of the attacks, the targets were not chosen very selectively. The territories of former military units and port facilities came under attack again.
🔹 Not any significant damage was confirmed by the Houthi retaliatory attack. There are no details yet, but the launch of two ballistic missiles from #Yemen was recorded.
📌 Some media outlets started talking about the defeat of an #US F-35 fighter, which allegedly crashed in #SaudiArabia, but the point is that the F-35s did not fly to #US military bases in the #MiddleEast, and they did not participate in the attack on #Yemen.
