>Houthi forces fire ballistic missile at Saudi airport BEIRUT, LEBANON (6:30 P.M.) – The Houthi forces launched a powerful attack against the Saudi military, today, targeting two sites belonging to the latter in both Yemen and Saudi Arabia.
The first attack by the Houthi forces began in southern Saudi Arabia, when their rocket battalion in the Yemeni province of Sa’ada fired a Badr-1 ballistic missile at the Jizan Airbase.
Saudi forces claim they downed the missile before it could hit their military installation in the Jizan region.
Following this attack, the Houthi forces fired another ballistic missile towards a Saudi military gathering in western Yemen.
>Full report from southwest Syria battle BEIRUT, LEBANON (7:00 P.M.) – The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) had another big day in southwest Syria this week, taking control of several areas that were under the control of the rebel forces.
Beginning in the Daraa Governorate, the Syrian Army was able to capture the strategic hilltop of Tal Jabiyah, which overlooks the large city of Nawa in the northwestern part of the province.
Following the capture of Tal Jabiyah, the Syrian Army began positioning themselves for a big attack on the remaining militant forces inside Nawa.
Meanwhile, in the Al-Quneitra Governorate, the Syrian Army secured a deal with the rebel forces, which would see the latter surrender all of the towns they control in the province, including the provincial capital.
According to a military source in southwest Syria, the rebel forces will handover one town after another to the Syrian Arab Army in the coming days; however, there are some fears that they may renege because of the jihadist elements in the area.
The Syrian Army has offered to transport all the jihadists to northern Syria, where they can rejoin their comrades in the Idlib and Aleppo governorates.
While this move is not ideal for the Syrian government, it will avoid violence and a prolonged battle against the jihadist rebel forces.
>Idlib settlement can be achieved like southwest Syria approach: Russian ambassador The situation in Syria’s Idlib province can be settled on the pattern of the southern de-escalation zone, the problem necessitates a delicate approach, Russian Ambassador in Damascus Alexander Kinshchak told reporters on Thursday.
“The situation in Idlib is very difficult, it has the biggest concentration of militants and terrorists. The borders of this de-escalation zone run very close to major cities and facilities, for example they run practically along the outskirts of Aleppo,” the ambassador said. “It is exactly from this zone that combat UAVs fly towards Hmeymim (Russian base in Latakia), creating a real danger to us,” Kinshchak said.
“These problems must be addressed, but carefully, delicately, without attracting additional attention, including from the media,” the ambassador said. “The conversation is not easy, each of the countries guarantors of the Syrian ceasefire (Russia, Iran and Turkey) have their national interests, their vision as to what and how must be done in Syria,” he explained.
He said the parties are trying to find points of coincidence. “Cooperation has so far succeeded, and everything will go well in Idlib as well,” the diplomat added.
He said it is not ruled out that the settlement in Idlib will be achieved by the example of the southern de-escalation zone in Syria. “Taking a look at the way the anti-terrorist operation unfolds in southern provinces, we see that the result is achieved mainly through negotiations,” he noted. “The residents of these regions want to make peace, they put pressure on the militants. I don’t rule out that we can have something like that in Idlib,” the ambassador went on to say.

“This won’t be easy and will take long,” he summed up.
In May 2017, the Syrian ceasefire guarantor nations, namely Russia, Iran and Turkey, signed a memorandum in Astana on setting up four de-escalation zones in Syria. In mid-September, they announced that all zones were functioning.
De-escalation zones include the Idlib Province, some parts of its neighboring areas in the Latakia, Hama and Aleppo Provinces north of the city of Homs, Eastern Ghouta, as well as the Daraa and al-Quneitra Provinces in southern Syria.
>Trump: ‘Reckless’ media pushing for ‘major confrontation with Russia that could lead to war’
Donald Trump says that recent hysteria whipped up by the “Fake News Media” about his summit with Vladimir Putin shows that the US press is eager for a “major confrontation” with Russia, one that could even lead to war. “The Fake News Media wants so badly to see a major confrontation with Russia, even a confrontation that could lead to war. They are pushing so recklessly hard and hate the fact that I’ll probably have a good relationship with Putin. We are doing MUCH better than any other country!” the US president tweeted on Thursday.
Shortly after accusing the media of pushing for confrontation with Russia, Trump tweeted that he looked forward to meeting Putin again so that the two leaders could finalize plans for cooperation between Washington and Moscow.
“The Summit with Russia was a great success, except with the real enemy of the people, the Fake News Media. I look forward to our second meeting so that we can start implementing some of the many things discussed, including stopping terrorism, security for Israel, nuclear proliferation, cyber attacks, trade, Ukraine, Middle East peace, North Korea and more. There are many answers, some easy and some hard, to these problems...but they can ALL be solved!” he wrote.
>Powerful people in US sell their anti-Russian stance to their nation – Putin
There are powerful people in the US who steer the entire country on the path of confrontation with Russia, President Vladimir Putin warned, adding that the Kremlin must take this factor into account. The warning came as Putin was addressing the senior members of the Russian diplomatic corps in Moscow. He spoke off the script to warn Russian ambassadors of the danger posed by Russia-haters in America.
>"We can see forces in the United States, which would easily sacrifice Russian-American relationship for the sake of their ambitions in domestic political struggle in America. They would sacrifice the interests of the US business, which loses contracts and ties in Russia, US jobs, few as they may be, that rely on Russian-American cooperation,” Putin said.
>These forces "would sacrifice the interests of their allies in Europe and in the Middle East, including the state of Israel... They would sacrifice their own security.”

>Female IDF soldiers banned from removing bras, smoking & wearing white due to religious soldiers
The Israel Defense Force’s “modesty rules” which ban female soldiers from wearing white shirts, removing their bras and smoking near men to prevent “womanly temptation” for religious soldiers is infuriating its targets. Israel’s Women’s Network has reported that female recruits are being restricted by rules that dictate their dress and behavior because of the rising number of Ultra-Orthodox religious soldiers in the army.
“The dozens of testimonies that have reached us at the hotline for female soldiers in the past year and a half attest to what we’ve known for a long time. Commanders in the field deviate from the army’s orders and enforce bizarre modesty rules on the female soldiers, and prevent them from doing their jobs,” Managing Director of the Israel Women’s Network, Michal Gera Margaliot told Haaretz.
