Houthis Strike al-Makha Port as Trump Shifts to Economic Pressure on Iran (Aug 10, 0612 UTC, 0912 Israel) (Morning Edition)
Houthi forces launched ballistic missile and drone attacks on Yemen’s al-Makha port, killing at least seven and wounding 30, while the US signaled a shift toward economic pressure on Iran. Iran appointed IRGC veteran Mohsen Rezaei as Supreme National Security Council secretary, hardening its stance on Hormuz. Israel-Lebanon talks face a reported pause, with Hezbollah condemning an Israeli map it says exposes expansionist aims. In Gaza, Israel rejected a US-backed peace plan, and the Board of Peace envoy said Israel would only withdraw from areas declared free of weapons and tunnels.
