Group launches missiles, drone, says military spokesperson Yahya Saree
Yemen's Houthi group claimed responsibility Sunday for three attacks on Israeli targets.
Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree said the group targeted Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv and the Sdot Micha Air Base in central Israel with ballistic missiles.
Saree said a drone also struck an undisclosed but vital target in the southern Israeli city of Ashkelon.
US President Donald Trump said last month that he ordered “decisive and powerful military action” against the Houthis and later threatened to “completely annihilate them.”
The Houthis have targeted ships in the Red and Arabian seas, the Bab al-Mandab Strait and the Gulf of Aden since November 2023 in solidarity with Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, where Israel has killed over 50,900 people in a brutal onslaught.
The group halted attacks when a ceasefire in Gaza was declared in January between Israel and the Palestinian resistance group Hamas but resumed them after Israel renewed airstrikes on the enclave last month.
