The Houthi movement is reportedly strengthening its control over the Red Sea, a critical maritime route. This comes as Israeli forces continue operations in Gaza, with recent reports detailing the destruction of tunnels in Khan Yunis and the elimination of a Hamas operative, Jihad Ismail, who allegedly crossed into Israel on October 7th. The Israeli military released footage of the tunnel complex and the neutralization of a terrorist in a shaft at Ali al-Taher ridge.
Defense Minister Israel Katz shared additional angles of the tunnel explosions at Ali al-Taher. Meanwhile, Hezbollah has reportedly leveraged Israeli media reports to bolster its narrative of its fighters' resilience in Ali al-Taher. The article also mentions an assessment, based on satellite imagery, that the Houthis may have struck a Saudi oil pipeline capable of transporting 5-7 million barrels daily.
