A Power Plant and Sea Port were hit in the yemeni city of hodeidah. Videos have been posted on social media. Clearly a real difference to what we heard just a few days ago from world leaders, who were trying to arrange some sort of ceasefire deal, some sort of de escalation. They were talking about 21 days of no military action, of talks, but what weve seen over the last couple of days, and particularly with that pivotal moment here in the Middle East on Friday Evening, that large Scale Attack here In Beirut, and the News Yesterday that Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of hezbollah, had been ki

This video, filmed from eastern tel aviv, was posted around 6. 1i0am on social media and it shows the moments after the single surface to Air Missile was intercepted by israel using its Air Defence system.
