BEIRUT (Dispatches) – 
Hezbollah on Friday carried out a series of operations, targeting several Israeli military positions in the northern part of the 1948 occupied territories with various munitions, including combat drones.
Lebanon’s Al-Mayadeen television said the resistance group struck a gathering of Israeli troops close to the Al-Dhairah military site with a rocket salvo. The projectiles hit the designated targets precisely and left casualties among the forces, it said. 
Later Thursday, Hezbollah fighters carried out a drone strike against the Ein Margaliot military base in response to Israeli crimes against civilians in the southern regions of Lebanon.
Artillery units also shelled a group of Israeli soldiers as they were entering the Al-Malikiyah post.
Resistance fighters further launched guided missiles, artillery shells and rockets at an Israeli military convoy near Ruwaisat al-Alam outpost on Kfar Shuba Hills. Two armored vehicles were destroyed as a result.
The Israeli military had to create a smoke screen to withdraw its casualties, reports said.
In Yemen, the country’s armed forces targeted the MSC Darwin ship in the Gulf of Aden on Thursday, as they resumed operations in the Red Sea region in solidarity with the Palestinian people.
The Ansarullah movement also fired a number of ballistic and winged missiles at several targets in Israel’s port city of Eilat, military spokesman Yahya Sarea said in a televised speech.
The Liberian-flagged MSC Darwin VI ship was in the area of the attack, travelling between the ports of Aden and Djibouti, according to Refinitiv data.
Swiss-based MSC operates the world’s largest container line by fleet capacity.
Saree said, “The Yemeni Armed Forces confirm that they will continue to prevent Israeli navigation or any navigation heading to the ports of occupied Palestine in the Red and Arabian Seas, as well as in the Indian Ocean.”
The operations, he added, would last until the occupying regime ceased the aggression and a simultaneous siege of the coastal enclave. 
Ansarullah leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi held the U.S. accountable for atrocities in Gaza, saying Washington is managing the crimes ranging from siege and starvation to killing and destruction.
In a televised speech broadcast live on Thursday night, Houthi stated the Zionist regime continues to perpetrate all kinds of crimes against the Palestinian population of Gaza.
The Ansarullah leader touched on rocket and missile attacks by Palestinian resistance forces, stating that the Zionist enemy has suffered huge losses in terms of hardware and military personnel in Gaza.
He said the fact that half of settler are thinking about migration and departure from the occupied territories indicates an existential crisis and that they view themselves as usurpers and occupiers.
“The reverse migration of Zionists is among the strategic outcomes of the steadfastness and resilience of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip,” the Ansarullah chief said.
Houthi also pointed to extensive operations by Hezbollah against Israeli military positions, stressing that the strikes are precise and effective and have prompted Israeli military figures to acknowledge the difficulty in confronting Hezbollah.

The Israeli military’s attacks on Palestinian students, teachers and academic institutions across Gaza during the war have acted as a catalyst for the university protests.
Last week, a group of United Nations experts noted that 80 percent of schools in the Palestinian enclave have been damaged or destroyed since the war began in early October. Nearly 5,500 students have been killed, alongside 261 teachers and 95 university professors.
As uncertainty swirls around the future of the U.S. university encampments amid threats they will be dismantled, the students say they remain committed to continuing their protests — and to keeping the focus on what’s happening in Gaza.
