Worthless... No weapon how advanced is of any worth unless it is used.In the form of Mach 3–4 YJ-12s carrying 400–500 kg semi shaped charge warheads, fired outside the AEGIS cover. The YJ-12 can also do evasive maneuvers to avoid anti-missile threats.
YJ-12 - Wikipedia
There is also the YJ-18 with reach exceeding Aegis cover. YJ-18 will start off at sub Mach 1. Until about 20 km from target , it will sprint at Mach 3–4 to deliver good news to the carrier .
China's YJ-18 Supersonic Anti-Ship Cruise Missile: America's Nightmare?
This Chinese description relates that the missile’s great strength is its “亚超结合的独特动力” [subsonic and supersonic combined unique propulsion]. Another term applied to this design is “双速制反舰导弹” [dual speed control ASCM]. As explained in the article, it is projected that YJ-18 would have an initial subsonic phase estimated at .8 Mach similar to the Klub of about 180km, but 20km from the target would unleash the supersonic sprint vehicle at speed of Mach 2.5 to 3. The “dual speed” function allows the system to realize certain advantages of subsonic cruise missiles, such as their “relatively long range, light weight and universality …” but also takes the chief advantage of supersonic ASCMs as well, namely the ability to “大幅压缩敌方的反应时间” [radically compress the enemy’s reaction time].
The Chinese article relates another advantage of the “dual speed” approach. Just as the missile comes into contact with the ship’s defenses, it “sheds the medium stage …,” thus simultaneously and dramatically altering both its speed and also its radar reflection, “which would impact the fire control calculation.” The likelihood that YJ-18 improves upon the Klub missile’s “digitization, automation, as well as providing more intelligent flight control and navigation technology” is attributed in the Chinese article to a recent Jane’s report.
Clever move by the Israelis.
why are we hearing this news from Houthis instead of IRGC?According to Houthi Sources, a Senior Houthi Official alongside 2 Members of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps of Iran were Killed earlier today in a U.S. Airstrike against a Missile Launch Site in the Al-Bayda Governorate of Western Yemen.
Disgusting! Just Disgusting! Dying for child killers.How pathetic!!
Indian workers desperate for jobs in Israel despite war: "If it's in our destiny to die, then we can die either here or there" | CTech
Masons, painters, electricians, plumbers and some farmers said they were looking for jobs in Israel with some willing to risk going into a conflict zone because they could make five times more money in a year than they would at homewww.calcalistech.com

Thousands of men queued in India's northern state of Harayana during a recruitment drive to send workers to Israel, where the offensive in Gaza, now in its fourth month, has caused a shortage of labor.

I guess the conclusion is Indians happy to take the basic sustenance the Gazans had.It will be much more costly for Israelis to have thousands of Indian workers instead of the local Palestinian employed but I guess Israelis will have to make do with whatever they can find--but hard to believe Indian govt is going allow its citizens to work in a war zone like that. It is a powder-keg in Palestine and things can really really blow up!
the world has to come together to stop these genocidal maniacs
in 100 days what did they achieve in Gaza? every time they claim victory in an area and withdraw, the next second Hamas is back there and firing rockets back into Israel
so what can they achieve with even 1000 days in Lebanon? only killing tens of thousands more babies.
