Pakistan says Iran violated airspace, killing two children

Iran's Revolutionary Guard attacked targets in Pakistan just one day after shelling Iraq and Syria with missiles.

Pakistan said neighbouring Iran has violated its airspace resulting in the death of two children, hours after Iranian state media said missiles targeted two bases of militant group Jaish al Adl on Tuesday. Islamabad warned that the incident could have "serious consequences" and was "completely unacceptable" in a statement released by Pakistan's foreign office spokesperson in the early hours of Wednesday.

Iran’s foreign ministry was not immediately available for comment.

Iran’s attacks on the Kurdistan region and Pakistan escalate Tehran’s threats

The overall message of Iran is that it will continue to carry out attacks where it pleases.

Iran doubled down on its decision to launch attacks against Iraq and Pakistan over the last few days. Iran’s Ministry of Defense said Iran has a right to protect itself, claiming the attacks were defensive. Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps also continued to claim it was targeting “Zionists” and also “ISIS” in its attacks. The autonomous Kurdistan region of Iraq has rejected Iran’s claims and has highlighted the fact Iran killed civilians in its attacks.

Islamabad threatens Tehran with ‘serious consequences’

Iran has reportedly launched a strike on the Pakistani-based group Jaish al-Adl

US Conducts New 'Preemptive Strikes' On Houthi Launch Sites

On Tuesday US forces carried out another round of strikes on Houthi sites in Yemen, but this time the operation is being dubbed a "pre-emptive" attack that came in response to militants preparing missile launches on the ground in real time.

US To Relist Yemen's Houthis As Designated Global Terrorists After Biden Removed Them In 2021

It's about time? Late in the day Tuesday the Wall Street Journal is reporting that the Biden administration is belatedly moving to put Yemen's Houthi rebels back on the terrorist list.

Ironically it was Biden that removed the Houthis in the first place, as WSJ highlights: "The designation as a foreign terrorist organization, which the U.S. plans to formally announce on Wednesday, reverses a decision taken early in President Biden’s term to remove the Houthis from the list over concerns it hurt the prospects for peace talks and further crippled the economy of an impoverished nation at risk of famine."

After a rocky couple of years for the Chinese economy, the country’s stock market appears to be in free fall now, with authorities asking institutional investors not to sell stocks in an attempt to stabilize share prices as foreigners are pulling out.

Davos Day 2: The elites are hiding from their records

There's a different feeling this year in Davos than in the last couple of years. The rich and powerful used to roam the streets freely without anyone paying them attention. Now, the number of independent journalists paying attention to the World Economic Forum has grown, and the attendees are far more skittish. The ones that do appear are trying to gaslight people about their records, from John Kerry saying he never flies by private jet and Alibaba Group president J. Michael Evans downplaying the "individual carbon footprint tracker" he touted in Davos just two years ago.
