— 🇮🇱 NEW: Netanyahu plans to add Gideon Sa'ar's 'New Hope' faction to the coalition, adding 4 seats to his Knesset majority, and adding a Minister to the War Cabinet
Sa'ar is a vehement opponent of a hostage deal with Hamas, and many moderate to left-wing Israelis don't trust him, even Netanyahu's inner circle.
Stocks fell and gas prices spiked amid expectations of the government reshuffle.

— 🇮🇷/🇾🇪 NEW: Yemen's Ansarullah has released footage launching the 'Palestine-2' hypersonic missile at Israel two days ago
As expected, the missile looks and sounds similar to the Yemeni version of Iran's Kheybar Shekan-2, except the missile cone has a sharper angle, indicating a slightly different variant.
Edit: The missile cone actually looks more similar to Iran's 'Fatah' hypersonic missile, due to the sharp angles. It might be Yemen's domestic version of this missile.

— The fact that Hezbollah has the electronic warfare equipment to take control of an enemy drone mid-air, says a lot about the organization's capabilities.
Some units within the Russian and Ukrainian armed forces are not even equipped with such capabilities on the battlefield.
