The United States has rejected Russian reporting that the Houthis have hypersonic missiles, stating that they have no intelligence to suggest the Houthis have done any successful tests. The amount of strikes ticked up slightly today, as the Houthis launched a total of four missiles (all hitting nothing) and the United States response by destroying around a dozen drones and missiles.

The Doghmush clan of Gaza has turned on Hamas, stating that members of Hamas are legitimate military targets. There have been some rumors that the Doghmush clan is holding talks with Israel about Gaza's future. Control over part or all of Gaza being handed to the Doghmush would be a way for Israel to leave the strip administered by locals, while also installing a somewhat friendly government. The clan has a long history of opposition to Hamas, but they also have stood in opposition to Israel.

Satellite footage has shown that the floating dock has started to be constructed off the coast of Gaza. However, the American vessels containing supplies to build the dock are still quite far away. This is either probably local forces or American partners trying to get a head start on preparatory work. The good news is that this means that the time until humanitarian aid can be distributed by the dock is being reduced.
