News about Abdul Malik

Britain joined the United States, France and other allies in proposing a 21-day truce on Wednesday, with Sir Keir Starmer urging both sides to 'step back from the brink' in his UN speech yesterday. But speaking as he landed in New York last night, the Israeli prime minister flatly rejected the proposal, saying that his troops would continue to hit Hezbollah positions 'with full force' and would not stop until their goals are achieved. His address will be a stark contrast to his speech at the UN almost exactly a year ago - made before the horrific events of October 7 - in which he triumphantly hailed a new era of peace for the Middle East. Now the region appears to be closer than ever to all-out war.

The rescue mission of stricken Red Sea tanker Sounion is reportedly making slow progress after the oil ship was targeted by Houthi missiles. The towing of the abandoned tanker which was struck by the Yemen rebels last month is proceeding slowly in its second day, according to a Greek military source. The operation which began Saturday 'is proceeding at a very slow pace', the source said, adding that it was 'initially headed north' without revealing a destination. The tanker was hit on August 21 by Iran-backed Houthis with small arms fire, missiles and a drone boat off the coast of Hodeida while carrying 136,000 tonnes of crude oil - setting off blasts that put the Red Sea at risk of a major oil spill four times the size of the 1989 Exxon Valdez disaster off Alaska . After the initial strike, the Houthis returned and detonated charges on the ship's deck, setting off new fires.

Terrifying footage shows the moment Houthi rebels stormed a Greek oil tanker before blowing it up with explosives. The Yemeni militants released video today showing their fighters boarding and placing explosives on the tanker, setting off blasts that put the Red Sea at risk of a major oil spill.  The vessel was abandoned earlier, after the Houthis repeatedly attacked it with small arms fire, projectiles and a drone boat. In the video, the Iran-backed Houthis chant their motto as the bombs detonated aboard the oil tanker Sounion: 'God is the greatest; death to America; death to Israel; curse the Jews; victory to Islam.' It comes as militants continue waging anti-Israel war in the Red Sea, with this move capping the most-serious attack in weeks by the Houthis.

If true, having hypersonic missiles could place more emphasis on the continuing struggle for Israel's war against Hamas in Gaza. The latest weapons, which could potentially breach the West's defense system due to their speed and maneuverability, were announced by Russian state media, who cited an unidentified official but gave no evidence for the Houthi claims. However, the Houthis have speculated about'surprises' as a result of the battles at sea to face the United States and its allies, but they have not been able to strike down any missile or bomb-carrying drone that comes near their warships in Mideast waters for weeks. According to Abdul Malik al-Houthi, Houthis' unknown supreme leader, the rebels will begin striking ships off the coast of Africa's southern tip.

About 18 US and British fighter jets landed in various locations around the world, destroying missiles, launchers, rockets, drones, and unmanned surface and underwater vehicles. The officials spoke on condition of anonymity in order to release early information about an ongoing military mission.

Officials in Yemen reported Thursday that US forces deploying in the Arabian Sea had confiscated a massive arsenal of Iranian arms destined for Houthi rebels. CENTCOM, the United States command in the Middle East, captured a United States Coast Guard ship alongside a rusy skiff ship in a photograph shared online by CENTCOM, the United States' Command in the Middle East. Another picture showed the cache contraband that had been discovered on board.

Whitney Wright (right) of Porn has sparked controversy online after she took photos in front of the 'death to America' murals (left) on the now-abandoned US embassy in Tehran, Iran. The Oklahoma native, 32, filmed herself at the shut-down embassy, saying she 'HAD to visit' the museum where hostages were detained for 444 days. The National Guard Guard in Iran now operates the building as an anti-America museum (top inset). She was also seen posing next to a flagpole (bottom inset), with a torn US flag on the ground. Her photographs sparked outrage on social media, with critics accusing her of supporting one of the world's "most authoritarian regimes." Some people were 'glad' she came to Iran and 'hope you had a good time.'

Several incidents on commercial ships passing through the Red Sea by Iran-backed Houthi rebels have resulted in British and US forces launching targeted overnight strikes throughout Yemen. British and American forces retaliated by raining bombs on Houthi military installations, just days after Defense Secretary Grant Shapps warned that if attacks persist, further action will be taken. The Islamist group had defied a warning not to attack ships in the Red Sea, and tensions have risen after a British warship was forced to shoot down seven drones built by Houthis this week. That was the Houthis' 26th drone and missile strike on commercial ships since November 19, and the first of them all.

On Sunday, Mount Marapi, a volcano on the island of Sumatra, spewed an ash tower 9,800 feet - higher than the volcano itself - into the atmosphere (pictured, left). Hundreds of rescuers have been searching for days to find the missing hikers, who numbered ten on Tuesday before the local rescue service's announcement that the majority had been found, bringing the days-long hunt closer to an end (Pictured, bottom, and top right). On Monday, the head of Indonesia's volcanology service, Hendra Gunawan, blamed hikers for going too close to the crater, saying that no human activities were allowed in the area and that "severe consequences" were reported for victims within one to two kilometers of the crater. Relatives of the missing and dead are still waiting for news of their fates (pictured, top right)

On the Indonesian island of Sumatra, thirteen hikers were discovered dead near Mount Marapi's crater, with rescue officials announcing 11 deaths the same day and two more on Tuesday. According to reports, another ten people are missing, and 10 others are believed to have been killed. Others were found alive and carried down the mountain in arduous rescue attempts, fueling fear for those who are still missing. On Sunday, the volcano spewed an ash tower 3,000 meters (9,800 feet) - much higher than the volcano itself - into the atmosphere. But rescue efforts have been made more difficult by new eruptions and bad weather, with brave rescuers facing the possibility of having to walk to the volcano's summit on foot, putting a significant personal risk, to manually evacuate victims on stretchers.

After being trapped in an eruption in Indonesia over the weekend, survivors appear pleading for assistance. Zhafirah Zahrim Febrina, a 19-year-old girl, was screaming at her computer. 'Mum, help Ife,' she said, referring to herself by a family name. 'This is Ife's current predicament right now.' After being stranded on the mountain with 18 school classmates, Febrina and her father and uncle are now in a nearby hospital.

On Sunday, the Marapi volcano erupted, leaving nearly 75 climbers scrambling up the nearly 2,900-meter mountain stranded. At least 11 hikers have been found dead, and police are still looking for 12 of them. At least 49 climbers had been evacuated from the region earlier, and eight of those that were rescued were rushed to hospitals with burn wounds.

Many cities around the world have brandished the Israeli flag in solidarity following the atrocity carried out by Hamas against Israel last Saturday, which killed more than 1,000 people. The Israeli flag is projected onto Parliament, as well as the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin and Ukraine's capital Kiev. Though many people in the city applauded the symbolic move, Abdul Malik, the deacorian chair of Easton's Jamia Masjid mosque, was against the change. He wrote an online letter in favor of Palestine and criticizing Israel's conduct, but said he was banned from Facebook after posting his reaction to the Mayor's photograph. Mr Malik said he was the first to comment on the Facebook page of the picture, but later learned it had been taken down and he was unable to access the mayor's page.

According to a tribunal, a wealthy property tycoon was guilty of racial discrimination after referring one of her employees as a 'Pakistani crook.' According to an employment judge, Fawzia Al-Hassawi (right) had maintenance chief Abdul Malik fired after frightened over a leak in the swimming pool room at her Oxfordshire mansion (right). Kuwait's 69-year-old magnate, who was dubbed one of the Middle East's most influential women by Forbes magazine, said her money was 'going down the drain' with Mr Malik. The tribunal learned that she described him as the'son of 16 donkeys,' a'moron,' jerk, and'scum'.
