US President #DonaldTrump has launched a sweeping purge within the U.S. National Security Council following the leak of classified military plans concerning #Yemen. What is happening inside the White House? According to The @WashingtonPost, Trump dismissed National Security Agency (#NSA) Director and Cyber Command Chief #TimothyHaugh, along with his deputy, #WendyNoble, in response to the Yemen leaks. Meanwhile, @Axios reported that Trump has also fired several senior National Security Council (NSC) officials—up to 10 in total—while firmly standing by his National Security Advisor, #MikeWaltz. Additionally, @CNN confirmed that the dismissals extended to the NSC’s Director of Intelligence Affairs, Senior Director for Legislative Affairs, and Senior Director for Technology and National Security.

Yemeni Media reported that approximately 40 U.S. airstrikes targeting the capital, #Sanaa, as well as Saada and Al-Bayda, have resulted in an initial toll of 32 dead and over 100 wounded, the majority of whom are women and children. The strikes are expected to continue for weeks. Four airstrikes hit the Al-Jeraf neighborhood in northern Sanaa, killing ten people and injuring 13 others. Additional strikes targeted the Attan and Jarban areas in the Sanhan district of Sanaa province. In #Saada, reports indicate that airstrikes on two homes in the Qahza area, north of the city, led to a rising casualty count of ten dead and 13 wounded. Meanwhile, the U.S. Central Command (#CENTCOM) confirmed that it had carried out a series of airstrikes against "Ansarullah" targets across #Yemen. CENTCOM stated that the operations involved precision strikes, justifying them as measures to defend U.S. interests, deter adversaries, and restore freedom of maritime navigation. #RedSea#DonaldTrump

How did Trump's threat to cut aid to Egypt and Jordan tie into his proposal to deport Gaza's people? #UnitedStates#DonaldTrump#Gaza#Jordan#Egypt#Palestine

In an unprecedented move following his shock proposal for the permanent resettlement of the more than two million Palestinians from Gaza to neighboring countries, President Donald Trump announced a controversial plan for the U.S. to take over the Gaza Strip. This statement, made during a press conference with Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu, raised eyebrows worldwide. A journalist cornered Trump so he sought Bibi’s help to complete his answer. #UnitedStates#Israel#DonaldTrump#BenjaminNetanyahu#GazaStrip

#DonaldTrump’s plan for #Gaza is ethnic cleansing rebranded as the new administration seeks to turn #Israel’s genocide into a waterfront property pitch. #RelocatingGazans#EthnicCleansing
