[Regnum] Strikes by the United States of America and Great Britain on Houthi targets in Yemen have reduced the militants' ability to attack commercial and military ships in the Red Sea by almost a third, The New York Times reported, citing its own sources.
“Even after hitting 60 missile and drone targets with more than 150 precision-guided munitions, these strikes damaged or destroyed 20 to 30 percent of the Houthis’ offensive capabilities,” the report said. It is noted that some of the Houthi missile systems escaped destruction because they were moved or hidden.
According to the NYT source, identifying targets for strikes by the US and British armed forces turned out to be more difficult than initially expected due to the ineffectiveness of Western intelligence services, which spent a large amount of time collecting and processing data on the location of air defense systems, command centers and other Houthi facilities.
We were discussing this the other day.
As Regnum reported, on the night of January 12, the United States of America, together with its allies represented by Great Britain, Australia, Canada, Bayhren and the Netherlands, according to the Pentagon, launched multiple strikes on Houthi positions in Yemen, using about 150 units of various ammunition. On January 13, Al Masirah TV channel reported another US and British airstrike on the Ad-Dleimi air base, located in the north of the Yemeni capital. The same airbase was attacked by the US and allies the day before.
Press Secretary of Russian President Vladimir Putin Dmitry Peskov, during a briefing on January 12, commenting on the US and British strikes on Houthi positions in Yemen, said that Moscow condemns these attacks as they are illegitimate from the point of view of international law.
One of the targets of the rebel Houthi movement Ansar Allah was hit. Sky News Arabia reported this on January 14, citing local sources.
It is clarified that the facility is located in the northern part of the Yemeni province of Hodeidah, in the mountainous area of the Al-Luheya district.
So far there has been no information about casualties or possible damage.
The Houthi-owned Al Masirah TV channel claims that the attack was carried out by US and British warplanes.
As Regnum reported, on January 13, the naval base of the rebel Houthi movement Ansar Allah in the vicinity of the port city of Hodeidah on the Red Sea came under air attack. The strike hit a military facility in the Al-Katib area, from where the Houthis launched a missile in the direction of the Red Sea.
Earlier in the day, the United States and Great Britain launched a new strike in the north of the Yemeni capital Sanaa. They hit the Ad-Dleimi air base. The same air base was attacked by US and allied forces on January 12.
The head of the British Foreign Office, David Cameron, made it clear that London will support Washington if Washington decides to launch further strikes on Houthi positions in Yemen. He recalled that the United States and Britain had repeatedly warned the Yemeni Houthis about retaliation for their attacks on commercial and military ships in the Red Sea.
On January 14, US forces and the coalition led by Washington did not strike the territory of the Ansar Allah Houthi movement that rules northern Yemen. RIA Novosti reports this with reference to a Pentagon representative.
According to a US military spokesman, there were no US or coalition strikes on Yemen today.
Earlier, Regnum news agency reported that, according to Sky News Arabia, one of the targets of the rebel movement of the Yemeni Houthis Ansar Allah, located in the northern part of Hodeidah province, in the mountainous area of Al-Luheya district, came under attack.
The Houthi-owned Al Masirah television channel claimed that the attack was carried out by US and British warplanes.
Strikes by the coalition led by the United States and Great Britain against Houthi targets threaten to further deteriorate the situation of the Yemeni population, the Russian embassy in Sanaa reported on January 14.
“The population now largely survives due to humanitarian aid,” the commentary says.
The diplomatic mission noted that over the past few years, Yemen has been experiencing one of the most serious humanitarian crises of our time. The situation in one of the world's poorest countries has escalated into a full-scale humanitarian catastrophe since the outbreak of the military-political conflict between the government backed by the Arab coalition and the Houthi Ansar Allah movement in 2015.
According to rough estimates, there may be several hundred Russians in Yemen. As of the morning of January 12, there was no information about Russian casualties as a result of US and British strikes on Yemen.
Russians were once again advised not to visit Yemen amid the worsening situation in the country.
As Regnum reported, on the night of January 12, the United States and Great Britain, with the support of the international coalition, launched strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen. Washington and London called the attack “self-defense” and a response to the Houthis’ actions in the Red Sea. The US Air Force attacked more than 60 Houthi targets using over 100 precision-guided munitions of various types. The targets of the air raid were drone production centers and weapons depots.
The United States launched an additional blow against the Houthis on January 13. An American aircraft carrier using a Tomahawk missile attacked a Houthi radar in Yemen.
On January 12, the Russian Foreign Ministry called the US strikes on Yemen a complete disregard for international law. The Federal Air Transport Agency has banned domestic airlines from flying over Yemen.

Text taken from Russian military correspondent Rybar.
Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin is in italics.
[ColonelCassad] The search for missing US Navy SEALs continues for the third day in the Red Sea.
According to American media reports, citing some officials, two SEALs fell into the water during a night operation one after another.
The statement did not disclose what type of operation the sailors were conducting at the time. But they were "deployed to the US 5th Fleet (C5F) area of operations to support a wide range of missions."
CNN clarifies that the cause of the fall was “eight-foot waves,” and the second fighter jumped after the first in an attempt to save him.
And this casts some doubt on the circumstances of the incident.
Firstly, eight-foot waves (about 2.5 meters) are not unusual for the region at this time of year, although the human factor cannot be ruled out.
Secondly, the disappearance of the SEALs surprisingly coincided with a massive attack by the Yemeni Houthis. There is a lot of room for imagination here: up to the possibility of an American ship being hit as a result of return fire.
Another scenario could be an operation against Harakat al-Shabbab or the Somali branch of the Islamic State. Although in the latter case, the United States usually admits or at least partially publishes the circumstances of the incident in general terms.
In addition, one should not discount the attempt to land a special forces group on Yemeni territory. Not the entire coastline is controlled by the Houthis, but an agreement could be reached with UAE- or Saudi-controlled forces.
And the last likely scenario could be the legalization of losses in other crisis zones of the world. For example, you can drown in the Red Sea while staying in a Kharkov hotel.
It looks like the Houthis scored at least one hit on the American ship (which the Houthis claimed) and two people simply died there, while the ship itself maintained its course and continued to operate off the coast of Yemen.
“Navy SEALs lost at sea were searching for Yemen-bound weapons shipment
The dangerous ship-boarding mission was ordered after U.S. officials suspected a vessel transiting the Gulf of Aden was transporting Iranian arms”
Is a combat related loss rather than a “…fall from a boarding ladder” a reasonable explanation?.
Direct firefight with Iranian proxie-assets onboard, or even actual IRGC and the Administration fear of acknowledging such a thing seems a possible explanation.

Part of full kit for MAROPs includes both hard cell (foam insert) and inflatable (manually actuated CO2) flotation devices. Also standard load out includes high visibility strobes, both IR and Vis. However, things happen and depending on sea state and speed, once you go over a wave peak, the strobe is basically useless. Could take a long time to get air on station for search and rescue. Even though the water is warm, you can die of hypothermia in 80 degree water.
I’m skeptical of anything they say, however having been there, it’s not totally unbelievable that they lost two at sea.
One thing that sticks out suspiciously though, is that it’s protocol for another to jump in after. 10 years in the teams and Never heard that before. Weird. We would just move the boat so you don’t crush the dude and circle back to get him with the boat. Then continue the hook and climb."
[IsraelTimes] British police arrest six people who are members of the Palestine Action protest group as part of an investigation into an alleged plot to disrupt the London Stock Exchange.
The police allege the activists had planned to target the LSE tomorrow morning, in an attempt to prevent the building from opening for trading.
In a statement, London’s Metropolitan Police says three people were arrested in the northern English city of Liverpool, two in London, and one in the south coast city of Brighton.
“These are significant arrests. We believe this group was ready to carry out a disruptive and damaging stunt which could have had serious implications had it been carried out successfully,” says Detective Superintendent Sian Thomas.
The police says all six activists remain in custody.

[Regnum] Ecuadorian police and military released 24 prison guards and 17 administrative employees previously taken hostage by prisoners during the riots. The Ecuadorian Penitentiary Service (SNAI) announced this on its page on the social network X (formerly Twitter).
Currently, 136 people remain in captivity. SNAI noted that violence and clashes in prisons continue.
In this regard, security was evacuated from the Guayas prison, where security forces stopped attempts at escape and a new hostage-taking. At the El Oro prison, inmates clashed with police and military personnel. New operations are being carried out in correctional facilities.
As Regnum reported, on January 7, the security situation in Ecuador began to escalate. It took place against the backdrop of unrest in prisons and escapes of criminal gang leaders.
On January 8, Ecuadorian President Daniel Noboa introduced a state of emergency in the country for 60 days, and on January 9 - a regime of internal armed conflict. On the same day, armed people burst into the studio of the TC television channel in the city of Guayaquil, taking the editorial staff hostage.
The invaders demanded to be given the opportunity to go live. In addition, in several prisons in Ecuador, prisoners took hostage more than 130 guards and employees of institutions.
On January 10, the military gathered armored vehicles in the center of the capital of Ecuador. In addition, by order of the head of state, the security of high-ranking officials and their families was strengthened.

[Regnum] A US citizen with an unregistered weapon and a list of addresses of several members of the Norwegian royal family is detained by police at Oslo airport. The local newspaper VG reported this on January 14.
“The connection of the accused with Norway and the purpose of his stay is considered, among other things, as a special interest in the Norwegian royal family,” the newspaper quotes the decision of the court of first instance of the regions of Rumerike and Glomdal.
It is clarified that a US citizen landed at Gardermoen airport, in whose luggage a weapon and a notebook with the addresses of several members of the Norwegian royal family were found. The man was taken into custody and pleaded guilty to violating the weapons law. It is noted that the arrested person submitted an application to the Norwegian authorities in order to obtain permission to import weapons into the country.
As the American's lawyer, Jörunn Läglan, clarified, his client himself told customs that he was carrying an unregistered weapon. According to the lawyer, the case will end with an admission of guilt, and then the US citizen will be expelled from the country.
According to the publication, the same man was already expelled from Norway in 2021, when he was spotted near the Norwegian royal palace and the residence of the Crown Prince and Crown Princess.
Earlier, IA Regnum reported that Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen accidentally confused her country with Norway and put the wrong tag on a photo on social networks. The Prime Minister wanted to express her respect to King Frederick X of Denmark on his accession to the throne, but accidentally tagged the royal house of Norway in a photo on a social network.
[IsraelTimes] Former Israeli prime minister Naftali Bennett blasts the reported arrest tonight of Israeli soccer player Sagiv Jehezkel, of the Antalyaspor club, as part of an alleged incitement probe opened by Ottoman Turkish authorities over a gesture made earlier by Jehezkel on TV for the Israeli hostages held by Hamas ...not a terrorist organization, even though it kidnaps people, holds hostages, and tries to negotiate by executing them,... "This is The Sick Man of Europe Turkey ...the occupiers of Greek Asia Minor... 2024. Shame on you, Ottoman Turkish government," tweets Bennett, calling the arrest "unbelievable."
Jehezkel, 28, was suspended from the team after he celebrated an equalizer goal in Sunday’s 1-1 draw against Trabzonspor in the top Ottoman Turkish league by making a heart sign with his hands to the camera, and showing the words "100 days. October 7" along with a Star of David symbol on his wristband. 100 is the number of days the hostages have been in the Paleostinian terror group’s captivity.
In Turkey, whose neo-Ottoman sultan hates the Jewish state with the fire of a thousands suns for not knowing its dhimmi place? What are you thinking, man?
The gesture was met with fierce backlash from fans and Ottoman Turkish media.
Duh.
Ottoman Turkish Justice Minister Yilmaz Tunc announced an investigation against Jehezkel for charges of "inciting people to hatred and hostility." "That's OUR job!"
Hebrew media reported Sunday night that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been updated on the events and that the Prime Minister’s Office together with the Foreign Ministry and the Culture and Sports Ministry were working to push Turkey for Jehezkel’s release.
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] A Palestinian man killed one woman and injured up to 18 other people in a stabbing and car-ramming attack in the central Israeli city of Raanana today, Israeli media said.
'A wounded woman who arrived in a critical condition after having been hit by a vehicle has died of her injuries despite our efforts to save her,' said a statement from Meir hospital, near Raanana.
An official police statement said two suspects were detained and the incident is now being investigated.
The suspected attackers, named as Muhammad Zaidat, 44, and Ahmed Zaidat, 24, are both believed to be Palestinians from the West Bank city of Hebron.
Police told Israeli media the pair, who are related, fatally stabbed one victim before stealing a car. and swapping vehicles several times before crashing.
Harrowing images showed a heavily damaged white saloon car smashed into a lamppost mere feet from a bus stop with evident bloodstains smeared across the brickwork.
In addition to the fatal stabbing victim, another 66-year-old man was reportedly stabbed.
Meanwhile, a 34-year-old man and a 16-year-old boy were left in serious condition with head injuries, as a result of the ramming on Ahuza Street, the main street of the city.
Seven of those injured were children, according to The Jerusalem Post. Fortunately, Dr Ron Brunett of the Schneider Pediatric Centre said the minors were in a mild condition with no life threatening injuries.
Central District Commander Avi Bitton told The Times of Israel the suspects were Palestinians who had been working in the city's industrial zone recently. Both were in Israel illegally, he said.
'This was a very grave terror attack,' Bitton said, adding the 'terrorists' took control of two cars and carried out attacks at three locations in the city.
He says the first was apprehended very quickly and the second a few minutes later.
Investigators are not ruling out other suspects, and are now conducting a search of the wider area to avert any further attacks, Bitton concluded.
National Police Commissioner Kobi Shabtai initially praised the rapid and professional police response, but gave no more details. He later added in a statement: 'Both terrorists are residents of Hebron, family members who entered the area illegally.'
The two suspects were named as Ahmed Zidat, 25, and Mahmoud Zidad, 44, both residents of the southern West Bank town of Bani Naim, close to Hebron. According to the Shin Bet, both had been blacklisted for entering Israel illegally numerous times in the past.
The attack began at about 1:30 p.m., as schools were dismissing students for the day.
Channel 12 publishes a quote from the Shin Bet interrogation of one of the suspects in today’s Ra’anana terror attack that was ostensibly leaked by the security agency.
“When the war in Gaza began, my cousin and I decided to carry out an attack and become martyrs,” the Palestinian suspect is quoted as having said.
“We got a ride to Ra’anana from Hebron three days ago. Our plan was first to stab Jews. Then we decided to run over as many Jews as possible.”
[GEO.TV] Hamas ...the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,... armed wing front man Abu Ubaida said on Sunday that the fate of many Israeli hostages has become unknown.
In his first televised appearance for several weeks, marking the 100th day since the outbreak of the war, Abu Ubaida said many of the hostages "may have been killed", blaming their fate on Israel.
He added "any talks before stopping the Israeli aggression are worthless."
The October 7 cross border attack into Israel came in response to 100 years of "massacres against our people carried by the occupier and its gangs," he added. Taking hostages is bad enough. Losing track of them seems to be a peculiarly Arab thing. Now that I think about it, so's taking them, except for the occasional criminal gang. Guess you're known by the company you keep. Please focus on the massive aparteid Israeli government response, not on the actual 7 Oct 2023 Hamas terrorist attack and obvious causes of the conflict. (sarc off)

Fate of many hostages unknown.
I believe one could accurately guess. I'm shocked that as many survived the ordeal as did.
[IsraelTimes] IDF troops killed two Paleostinians who allegedly hurled an bomb at an army base near Ramallah in the West Bank.
The IDF says troops of the 636th Combat Intelligence Collection unit carrying out "proactive activity" near Ramallah spotted the two suspects hurling a bomb at the base and opened fire.
[IsraelTimes] A video-journalist from the Cairo-based television channel Al Ghad was reportedly killed in Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... in a strike the channel blames on the IDF.
"It is with a heavy heart that we announce that Al Ghad video-journalist Yazan al-Zwaidi has been murdered by Israeli fire," the station announced in a post on X.

[IsraelTimes] 37-second, undated video ends with chyron reading ’Tomorrow we will inform you of their fate,’ in practice Israel has slammed as psychological warfare
Paleostinian terror group Hamas ...the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,... on Sunday aired a new propaganda video showing three hostages held in the Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... Strip, in a practice Israel says is deplorable psychological warfare.
Most Israeli media outlets do not publish the videos.
In undated, edited-together clips, the video released Sunday showed Noa Argamani, 26, Yossi Sharabi, 53, and Itay Svirsky, 38, identifying themselves and asking the Israeli government to bring them home.
The 37-second clip ended with the chyron: "Tomorrow we will inform you of their fate."
There was no information indicating when the videos were filmed.
Hamas has previously issued similar videos of hostages it is holding since October 7, when thousands of Death Eaters killed 1,200 across southern Israel and kidnapped 240 people of all ages.
The Paleostinian terror group said earlier on Sunday it had lost contact with some hostages as Israeli forces operate in Gaza, noting that they might have been killed in the process.
"The fate of many of the enemy’s hostages and detainees has become unknown in recent weeks and the rest are all in the tunnel of the unknown due to the Zionist aggression," Hamas spokesperson Abu Obeida said in a televised statement. "Most likely, many of them were killed recently, the rest are in great danger every hour and the enemy’s leadership and army bear full responsibility."
He added that "any talks before stopping the Israeli aggression are worthless."
Abu Obeida also said that Hamas has been told by "several parties in the resistance fronts that they will expand their strikes on the Israeli enemy in the coming days."
At the outset of the war, triggered by the group’s October 7 shock assault, Hamas threatened to execute hostages in retaliation for Israeli military strikes.
Israeli officials have generally declined to respond to Hamas’ public messaging on the hostages, casting it as psychological warfare.
Hagar Mizrahi, a forensic official with Israel’s Health Ministry, told local TV on December 31 that autopsies of slain hostages who had been recovered found causes of death inconsistent with Hamas’ account they had died in Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... s.
But Israel has also made clear it is aware of the risks to hostages from its offensive, and is taking precautions.
"The military operation takes time. It obligates us to be precise, and we are adapting it in accordance with the threats and the hostages who are in the field," IDF Spokesman Rear-Admiral Daniel Hagari said on Sunday.
Of some 240 people taken hostage by Hamas in the October 7 cross-border killing spree, around half were released in a weeklong November truce. Israel says 132 remain in Gaza and that 25 of them have died in captivity, citing new intelligence and findings obtained by troops operating in Gaza.
[IsraelTimes] Due to communication problems in war-torn Paleostinian enclave, veteran politician reportedly only informed of cousins’ deaths days later
Three members of the extended family of veteran Arab Israeli MK Ahmad Tibi (Ta’al) were killed in the Gazoo ...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response... Strip, where Israel has been battling the Hamas ...the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,... terror group.
In a Sunday post to X, formerly Twitter, Tibi retweeted a media report about the deaths and added a quote from leading Paleostinian poet Mahmoud Darwish in Hebrew, English, and Arabic, "We love life if we can find a way to it."
The three fatalities, reportedly from an Israeli bombing in the Nuseirat refugee camp, were Dr. Saher Tibi, an educator, 50; Faisal Tibi, 19, a computer science student; and Ahmad Tibi, 10.
The Ynet news site reported they are all family members of a cousin of Tibi’s father.
They were killed in recent days, but due to the communication problems in the Gaza Strip caused by the war Tibi was only informed of their deaths on Saturday, according to the report.
Speaking to Ynet, Tibi said, "May the suffering and pain end for all of us."
The politician said that his family members in Gaza had moved locations four times since the war started in October and that the final location, where they were killed in an Israeli bombing, was in an area that the Israel Defense Forces had declared a safe zone for Gaza civilians.
[IsraelTimes] The IDF says two Paleostinians who breached a roadblock and shot up troops near the West Bank settlement of Metzad were killed by soldiers.
According to the IDF, a Paleostinian-owned car broke through a roadblock near Metzad and fled.
Amid a chase after the vehicle, the IDF says shots, were fired from the car, likely by the passenger, at the soldiers.
The troops returned fire, killing both suspects.
The IDF says troops found the gun used in the attack, along with an axe and ammunition, in their car.
[GEO.TV] Iranian authorities have released two journalists, Niloufar Hamedi, 31, and Elaheh Mohammadi, 36, who had been imprisoned for over a year for covering the death of Mahsa Amini.
The journalists were freed on bail from Tehran's Evin prison, each required to pay 100 billion rials ($192,307), as reported by the reformist Shargh newspaper and corroborated by other Iranian media outlets.
Currently appealing their sentences of several years in prison, the journalists will remain out of jail until the appeals court reaches a decision. Additionally, they are subjected to a travel ban.
Both journalists, a photographer for Shargh newspaper and a news hound for Ham Mihan newspaper respectively, were tossed into the calaboose following the death of Mahsa Amini in September 2022.

[IsraelTimes] The IDF says it carried out another wave of Arclight airstrike ...KABOOM!... s on Hezbollah targets in Leb ...an Iranian satrapy currently ruled by Hassan Nasrallah situated on the eastern Mediterranean, conveniently adjacent to Israel. Formerly inhabited by hardy Phoenecian traders, its official language is now Arabic, with the usual unpleasant side effects. The Leb civil war, between 1975 and 1990, lasted a little over 145 years and produced 120,000 fatalities. The average length of a ceasefire was measured in seconds. The Lebs maintain a precarious sectarian balance among Shiites, Sunnis, and about a dozen flavors of Christians, plus Armenians, Georgians, and who knows what else? It is the home of the original Hezbollah, which periodically starts a war with the Zionist Entity, gets Beirut pounded to rubble, and then declares victory and has a parade. The Lebs have the curious habit of periodically murdering their heads of state or prime ministers... in response to attacks on the border.
The sites that were hit a short while ago by fighter jets included command centers and other infrastructure used by the terror group, the military says.
The IDF says that earlier it also hit other "infrastructure and assets" belonging to Hezbollah.
