After their oil tankers in the Red Sea were hit and control over the strategic Bab al-Mandeb Strait lost, Saudi Arabia approached Ansarallah to ask what it would take for a negotiated settlement to be made, according to the Wall Street Journal.

The Houthis response was $51 Billion USD, which they said would be needed cover the cost of over a decade of Saudi strikes and blockade. They also reportedly demanded that Saudi Arabia recognise Ansarallah as the legitimate rulers of Yemen, "for good measure".

Earlier, Ansarallah announced carrying out a series of operations against Saudi and Saudi-backed PLC targets, including:

- Strikes on Saudi/PLC troop concentrations in the Al-Jawf Governorate of Yemen using 6 ballistic missiles, reportedly killing and injuring dozens and destroying several vehicles.

- Striking a radar system on Al-Qahmah Peninsula, north of Jizan in southwestern Saudi Arabia, with a drone.

- Attacking a Saudi military camp in Najran, Saudi Arabia, with a ballistic missile.

- Targeting a border guard command and control centre in Jizan, southwestern Saudi Arabia, with a ballistic missile, allegedly killing and injuring Saudi soldiers and officers.

- Targeting King Khalid International Airport in the Saudi capital of Riyadh with a ballistic missile, allegedly causing "significant damage" to the airport.

- Carrying out a precision strike on Saudi/PLC troop concentrations at an iron factory in the Hajjah Governorate of Yemen with a ballistic missile, allegedly killing and injuring a large number of personnel.

- Shooting down a Saudi "Wing Loong II" armed reconnaissance drone over the Taizz Governorate of Yemen.

⚡️🇳🇿 The Guardian: New Zealand faces a tight election on November 7, with the centrist Opportunity party potentially deciding who governs.

The final 1News–Verian poll puts National at 30%, Labour at 29% and Opportunity at 6%. Neither the governing coalition nor the opposition bloc would secure a majority without Opportunity’s support.

Opportunity leader Qiulae Wong says her party will negotiate first with whichever party wins the most seats. A close result could delay negotiations while parties await the final vote count.

New Zealand mentioned!!! 🇳🇿🇳🇿🔥🔥🥝🥝

Footage showing the impact of a Russian Kh-35 cruise missile strike on an enterprise in the city of Bilhorod-Dnistrovs'kyi, Odesa Oblast.

At least two Kh-35 cruise missiles were used in total. Smoke from a previous impact can be seen in the video.

Today i learned:

Ukraine accuses a literal 3 year old of being a Russian invader, and put him on the Myrotvorets list.

Tonight, there is an increased threat of Russia carrying out a large-scale attack on energy infrastructure in Kyiv City and Kyiv Oblast using ballistic missiles.

Up to 30 Iskander-M and RM-48U modified S-400 ballistic missiles are ready in Bryansk Oblast. Several Zircon hypersonic and Oniks-M supersonic cruise missiles from Kursk and Rostov Oblasts could also be used.

Additionally, up to 8 Kn-23 ballistic missiles from near Liski, Voronezh Oblast, could be used to attack Kremenchuk, Dnipro, and Kryvyi Rih.

Potential targets include: the CHP-4/5/6 Combined Heat and Power Plants in Kyiv; the Prydniprovsky, Kremenchuk, Trypillya, and Kryvyi Rih Thermal Power Plants in Dnipropetrovsk, Kyiv, and Poltava Oblast; as well as the Vyshhorod and Kremenchuk Hydroelectric Power Plants in Kyiv and Kirovohrad Oblasts.

There is also the possibility of Iskander-K cruise missiles being used.

Around 5 minutes ago, an attempt was made by Russia at shooting down a Ukrainian F-16/MiG-29/Su-27 aircraft flying south of Sumy, with a S-400 surface-to-air missile launched from near Lgov, Kursk Oblast.

Update: This was actually carried out by a Su-35 fighter jet, launching an R-37/77 air-to-air missile from south of Lgov, Kursk Oblast.

Ansarallah is currently attacking the Saudi border town of Sharurah with drones or missiles.

Alerts have already sounded twice in the last 20 minutes.

The IRGC attacked an oil tanker 50 nautical miles off the coast of Qatar in the Persian Gulf with two unknown projectiles.

New emergency power outages have been implemented across Kyiv Oblast following overnight Russian Geran-4 jet-drone strikes on energy infrastructure in the region.

The "Kyivska" 750 kV electrical substation and the Trypillya Thermal Power Plant were among the locations targeted last night.

In additional to the emergency power outages in Kyiv Oblast, new emergency power outages have been implemented in Zhytomyr, Chernihiv, and Cherkasy Oblasts, as well as Kyiv City.

These run in addition to ongoing rolling blackouts.
