Yemen's government announces all-out war to reclaim land from Houthis

 


The head of Yemen's internationally recognised government has announced it will wage an all out war in an effort to take all territory held by the Houthis.

It follows an exchange of strikes between the Houthis and the Saudi-led coalition in recent days.

The Iran-backed group said it had struck sites belonging to Saudi national oil company Aramco, in response to what it described as 50 Saudi-led coalition strikes in 12 hours. Saudi Arabia has yet to comment.

The Yemeni government's fierce statement was expected after the Houthis' offensive last month, which saw them seize control of the country's coastline, including the vital shipping lane of the Bab al-Mandab Strait.

😂 Canada prepareing for a United States Invading them 😂

 




Prime Minister Mark Carney admitted last week that he has prepared for a once-unthinkable scenario - a US invasion.

Noting the risk was low and the likelihood highly improbable, he told the New York Times he had a responsibility to consider all possibilities as the US-Canada relationship is redefined under the Donald Trump presidency.

"That's just risk management," Carney said.

Trump's global tariffs and his often-repeated desire to make Canada the 51st state has led Canada to war game an attack by the Americans.

In 2025, the US president said it was "highly unlikely" that the US would ever use force against Canada. Instead he said, he would continue to exert economic pressures to obtain political aims.

"President Trump has done more than anyone to protect the great people of Canada," the White House told the BBC in a statement this week.

Military experts who spoke to the BBC also think an invasion is a long shot, pointing to the multiple ways the two countries work together on defence.

But the issue is clearly weighing on Canadians' minds.

In January, after the US captured Nicolás Maduro in Venezuela, a Leger poll suggested that over 30% of Canadians believed that a US invasion was likely.

Diesel prices in NI at highest level since Iran war began

 


Diesel prices in Northern Ireland are at their highest level since the Iran conflict began, according to Consumer Council data.

It shows that over the past week the average price of a litre of diesel was 193.3p.

That is below the record average of 197.2p in the summer of 2022, following Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, however some filling stations have already being charging £2 a litre.

Before the US-Israeli attack on Iran in February, a litre of diesel cost about 132p.

The Consumer Council data also suggests average petrol prices in Northern Ireland reached a post-Iran war high of 167.2p a litre over the past week.

That compares with about 124p a litre before the conflict began but well below the peak of almost 190p in the summer of 2022.

Data from the UK's Department for Transport shows that motorists in Northern Ireland are more reliant on diesel than those in other parts of the UK.

The figures suggest that just over half the private cars on Northern Ireland's roads use diesel, compared with a UK average of a third.

Sales of new diesel cars in Northern Ireland have fallen sharply in recent years in line with a trend across the UK.

Drought could continue into 2027, says water firm


One of the biggest water companies in England has warned that drought conditions could continue into 2027.

Anglian Water, which supplies services to around seven million customers across the East of England, said this year's back-to-back heatwaves had been exacerbated by a "severe" lack of rain.

Levels at its Grafham Water reservoir in Cambridgeshire stand at 60% of full capacity, almost 30% lower than where they should be.

Laura Tuplin, water resources manager at Anglian Water, explained the situation had been made worse by low groundwater and river levels.

"The rivers we abstract from are very low so we can't take water from some of them to protect the environment," she said.

"What we need is a prolonged period of rainfall."
