Iran-Aligned Militias Suspend Attacks on Israel

In response to a newly announced ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, Iranian-aligned militant groups from Iraq and Yemen, including the Nujaba Movement and the Houthis, declared they would suspend attacks on Israel. The ceasefire, which is set to begin on Sunday, has been welcomed by these factions as a significant victory. Nujaba leader Akram al-Kaabi emphasized that while operations are paused, any provocations from Israel would be met with a strong response, asserting their readiness to resume military actions if necessary. Similarly, Houthi spokesperson Mohammed Abdul Salam stated that their conflict with Israel is concluding with the ceasefire but reiterated the threat posed by Israel's actions in the region. The ceasefire agreement has yet to be officially confirmed by the Israeli government, which will review the deal in the coming days. Overall, the development marks a potential shift in the ongoing conflict dynamics in the region.
