The US and Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen are vowing escalation after the US launched deadly airstrikes to deter rebel attacks on Red Sea shipping. The airstrikes killed 53, including children and women, and injured 98. The Houthis claim to have attacked a US aircraft carrier group in retaliation. President Trump vowed to use force until attacks cease. The Houthis say they target ships in solidarity with Palestinians. Other key developments include a warning from UNICEF about the dire situation in Gaza, Iran’s response to Trump’s letter about nuclear talks, and Syria accusing Hezbollah of kidnapping and killing soldiers. Despite a ceasefire, Israeli airstrikes continue in Gaza. Germany pledges aid for Syrian refugees, while tensions between Netanyahu and the head of Israel’s internal security service escalate. The day also brings news of ongoing violence in Jenin, Israel’s failure to implement a ceasefire agreement with Hamas, and the US’s attempt to restart talks with Iran.
