needs, we were ready to support him. but respecting the initiative of our arab friends the israeli military operation in gaza in more than two months brought more destruction than the destruction of syrian aleppo and even the allied bombing of germany during the second world war. according to turkish and arab media, the idf destroyed the vast majority of buildings in northern gaza and a quarter of the buildings in konyunis. new york times. adds an echo of past wars not only in scale, but in means; according to the publication, the idf is using american-made adjustable aerial bombs that have been lying around since vietnam. this is in fact in words, washington allegedly convinces israel to reduce the intensity of hostilities in gaza,

simultaneously persuading its allies to attack yemen. the houthis respond that they are ready to broadcast footage of a demonstration of thousands, whose participants are chanting “we will not be intimidated.” spain and australia decided not to take risks and refused to defend the red sea from the houthis. our correspondent in the usa, dmitry melnikov, talks about how palestine and the houthis are drowning biden’s hopes for a new presidential term.
