The political media covered Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov holding a meeting with his Yemeni counterpart, Shaya’ Al-Zindani, in the Russian capital, Moscow, where the two ministers discussed ways to develop bilateral relations between the two countries and the situation in Yemen and the region. Additionally, Yemen’s Ansar Allah group (Houthis) on Sunday congratulated Hezbollah on the “major and courageous” attack it launched against Israel in response to the assassination of one of its prominent leaders, Fuad Shukr, late last month, stressing that the “Yemeni response is coming.” As for the humanitarian aspect, it witnessed widespread coverage due to the worsening humanitarian crisis, as Thirteen people have died and 14 others remain missing after a boat capsized off Yemen on Tuesday, the International Organization for Migration (IOM) said on Sunday. The military aspect also witnessed broader media coverage than in previous weeks, as the military media covered, The British Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) announcing two incidents off the coasts of the cities of Aden and Mokha in southwestern Yemen. The agency stated in a report on the “X” platform that it “received a report of an incident 55 nautical miles southeast of Aden.” In a subsequent statement, the agency announced that it “received a report of an incident 61 nautical miles southeast of the city of Mokha, which overlooks the Bab al-Mandab strait.” On Thursday, the “Ansar Allah” group (Houthis) announced that they are continuing preparations to respond to the bombing of the port of Hodeidah in western Yemen last July, stating that “the timing will be surprising for Israel.”
