IRAN – Welcome to today’s latest Iran-Israel conflict news: In coordination with the Iranian Army, the Yemen Houthi group on Sunday launched hypersonic ballistic missiles targeting Israel, and claimed to have achieved objective.
Houthi spokesperson Yahya Saree said the group hit “sensitive Israeli enemy targets” in Yaffa, central Israel, with hypersonic ballistic missiles at various times in the last 24 hours.

Iran Vows to Intensify Attacks on Israel
In a phone call with Pakistani president, the Iranian counterpart said if the Islamic Republic was not able to defend its territory in the face of the criminal and child-killing regime, the Iranians would witness everyday acts of aggression and massacre by Israel.
The president warned that Israel will receive a more powerful and severe response from the Iranian Armed Forces if it continues its aggression.
The ongoing Israeli aggression shows why Iran must enhance its defense power, Pezeshkian said, noting that the Islamic Republic has always sought to strengthen peace and security in the region and worldwide.

The Pakistani prime minister also expressed hope for peace and tranquility, deploring the fact that the Zionist regime commits with impunity all these crimes that violate the UN Charter and international regulations.
