US Central Command (CENTCOM) reports that Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen attacked a Liberian-flagged ship, operated by a Greek company, in the Red Sea. The ship was hit using an unmanned surface vehicle (USV), causing damage to its engine room and water intake. Additionally, Houthis launched two anti-ship ballistic missiles in a separate attack. Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree claimed the attack was in response to the ship violating a ban on entering Palestinian ports. No injuries were reported in either incident.
Hundreds of thousands of Iranians took to the streets after Friday prayers to protest Israel’s recent attacks on the country. The largest gatherings occurred in the capital, Tehran, where demonstrators marched following prayers at Tehran University.
High-ranking officials, including Iran’s Constitutional Court head Gholam Hossein Mohseni Ejei and former IRGC commander Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari, joined the protest. Participants waved Iranian, Palestinian, and resistance group flags, and trampled on Israeli and US flags laid on the ground.
Protesters held banners reading “Down with Israel”, “Down with the US”, and “The Zionist regime will be destroyed”, while chanting slogans such as “We stand behind our leader”, “Everyone who clashed with Khamenei will eventually be destroyed”, and “Our right to nuclear weapons”.
