Yemen Monitor/Newsroom:
An Israeli occupation minister issued statements, on Thursday, regarding recent movements by armed groups in Iraq and Yemen.
Israeli Army Radio quoted Minister Ze’ev Elkin as saying that the movement of armed groups present in Iraq and Yemen was to assist Gaza and the Hamas movement and that there is no ceasefire with them.
US President Joe Biden announced on Tuesday that a ceasefire agreement had been reached between Israel and Hezbollah in Lebanon, affirming that this 60-day truce is intended to be “permanent” and warning that “what remains of Hezbollah” will not be allowed to threaten Israel’s security again.
Biden said in a speech at the White House that under the agreement, which will go into effect at 4 a.m. local time on Wednesday morning, “cross-border fighting between Lebanon and Israel will end. This (truce) is intended to be a permanent cessation of hostilities.”
Biden delivered his speech shortly after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced that the Israeli security cabinet had approved the agreement.
