In a new piece on Fox News, Global Guardian VP of Client Risk Management Seth Krummrich discusses the latest developments in the U.S. Navy's attempts to contain attacks by the Yemeni Houthi rebels, and how this conflict impacts the larger Middle East today.
On 01 October, it was reported that Iran was preparing for a ballistic missile barrage targeting Israel in retaliation for the massive airstrikes on Hezbollah HQ that killed its leader, Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah on 27 September. The same strikes also took out some 20 other senior Hezbollah officials and likely Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) handlers. The threat of Iranian missiles prompted the U.S. Embassy in Israel to issue a shelter-in-place warning and comes after Israel launched a ground incursion into Lebanon on 30 September. Many nations continue to advise their citizens to leave Lebanon by commercial means while still available.

SPECIAL REPORT
Hurricane Helene, currently a Category 2 storm, is expected to make landfall tonight as a Category 4 storm in the Big Bend area of Florida. According to current estimates, Helene is expected to make landfall between 9 p.m. and 11 p.m. EDT, with maximum sustained winds of 130-135 mph and gusts up to 150 mph or higher. Storm surge will impact areas as far south as the Florida Keys up to Mobile, AL. The most at-risk areas face 15-20 feet of storm surge. Portions of Tampa Bay will see 6-10 feet of surge. Strong easterly winds off the Atlantic will lead to storm surge and coastal flooding from northeastern Florida up to the coast to South Carolina.
Prolonged rainfall from Helene will lead to flooding in many areas, including the panhandle of Florida, and parts of Georgia, the Carolinas, Alabama, and Tennessee into the Southern Appalachians.
