Houthis Threaten to Target U.S. Ships in the Red Sea if America Attacks Iran
The Houthi group announced in a military statement on Saturday its readiness to target American ships and warships in the Red Sea if the United States becomes involved in any military attack alongside Israel against Iran.
The group's military spokesperson, Yahya Saree, said in a statement issued Saturday afternoon—viewed by Al-Mashhad Al-Yemeni—that the group 'will not stand idly by' in the face of any American-Israeli aggression targeting Iran. He stated that 'any U.S. military involvement in support of the Zionist enemy falls within a broader scheme to impose dominance over the region and strip its peoples of their freedom and dignity.'

The statement added that Houthi forces are closely monitoring all military movements in the region, including what it described as 'hostile actions against Yemen,' and that the group 'will take all necessary legitimate measures to defend the country and its people,' according to the statement.
Saree also reaffirmed the group's alignment with the 'resistance forces in Palestine, Lebanon, and Syria,' and said Yemen 'will stand by any Arab or Muslim country subjected to Zionist aggression or that decides to confront it in self-defense.'
The statement concluded by declaring that the Houthis 'will not abandon the Palestinian people' and 'will not allow the Israeli entity, backed by the U.S., to carry out its plans in the region.'
Meanwhile, the Presidential Leadership Council in Yemen's interim capital, Aden, has warned the Houthis against dragging Yemen into a devastating regional war.
The statement comes amid growing anticipation of potential U.S. military intervention aimed at destroying Iran's nuclear program. Earlier today, the U.S. military website The Aviationist reported that two squadrons of B-2 strategic stealth bombers departed Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri and are currently en route to Guam in the Pacific Ocean.
The report did not mention any deployment of bombers to Diego Garcia, as had occurred in previous operations targeting the Houthis.
It's worth noting that U.S. President Donald Trump announced in early May that a deal had been reached with the Houthis—requested by the group via Oman—under which the Houthis would halt their attacks in the Red Sea in exchange for a cessation of American airstrikes on the group and areas under its control.

Netanyahu Uses Iran Conflict to Stay in Office Forever: Former US President Clinton
Former US President Bill Clinton said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was using war against Iran as a way to stay in power for good, according to Arab News. 'Netanyahu has long wanted to fight Iran because that way he can stay in office forever and ever. I mean, he's been there most of the last 20 years,' Clinton stated during an appearance on 'The Daily Show'. Clinton also said he urged US President Donald Trump to 'defuse' the ongoing war between Israel and Iran and put an end to the 'outright constant killing of civilians.' In the same context, he mentioned that he did not believe that either Netanyahu or Trump want to create a full-scale regional war. Apart from this, he noted that it is significant for the US to protect its allies but at the same time he called for restraint. 'We have to convince our friends in the Middle East that we'll stand with them and try to protect them,' he stated. Moreover, he underscored that embarking on undeclared wars that primarily destroy civilians 'is not a very good solution.' Importantly, Clinton stated that the US has stayed out of direct intervention in the Israeli Iranian tensions. However, it has provided Israel with military equipment and helped it intercept missiles from Tehran.

Multiple American B-2 bombers leave US for unidentified location: Al Arabiya English
Multiple American B-2 bombers have left the continental US for an unidentified location, Al Arabiya English has learned. The stealth bombers left Missouri's Whiteman Air Force Base and went west over the Pacific. Al Arabiya English previously reported that several US B-52 bombers were stationed at Diego Garcia, a strategic island base in the Indian Ocean. These bombers replaced B-2 stealth bombers, which have been used in recent months to target hardened underground Houthi weapons depots in Yemen. The B-2 remains the only aircraft in the US arsenal capable of delivering the type of bomb necessary to target and potentially destroy Iran's deeply buried nuclear facilities, such as those at Fordow. The B-2 stealth bomber is capable of flying long-range missions directly from the US.
