The Yemeni National Resistance Forces, under the command of General Tareq Saleh, have intercepted more than 750 tons of Iranian weaponry en route to the Houthis — marking the largest seizure of its kind to date. The cache included cruise and anti-aircraft missiles, drone engines, radar equipment, and Farsi-language manuals, all traced back to Iran’s Ministry of Defense. U.S. CENTCOM Commander General Erik Kurilla stated, “Iran continues to be the most destabilizing force in the region.”

Several strikes reported on the Daraa-Damascus Highway heading towards Suwayda in Southern Syria.

For the third time today, hundreds of Israeli Druze have crossed the border into Syria to protest the escalating violence in Suwayda.

Israel continues to carry out more strikes against the Syrian Army and the Government of President al-Sharaa than it ever did against the Syrian Arab Army and the Iranian-backed Assad Regime prior to its fall in December.

An Israeli military official confirmed they are in close coordination with U.S. counterparts regarding developments in Syria.
