Jerusalem Post·IL · IR·3 days ago
Satellite imagery suggests an MIM-104 Patriot battery at Erbil was struck during Iranian retaliatory operations. The extent of the damage and operational status of the system remain unverified by independent military sources.
Houthi forces have claimed responsibility for missile and drone strikes on Saudi Arabian oil infrastructure in Jizan, causing fires. These attacks follow Saudi-led coalition airstrikes on Houthi positions in Hodeida, Yemen, in retaliation for Houthi attacks on Saudi oil tankers in the Red Sea. The extent of damage and casualties from the recent strikes remains largely unverified, but the pattern indicates a significant escalation in regional hostilities.
