Israeli military confirms attack on Yemen
The Israeli military has confirmed overnight air strikes on Yemen's capital following reports of loud explosions in Sana'a. Israeli fighter jets "struck in Sana'a, Yemen," military spokesman Effi Defrin said. Broadcaster al-Arabiya reported the Israeli strikes might have hit a meeting of high-ranking Houthi officials. According to the Times of Israel, citing Israeli officials, the attack was aimed at the military chief of the Iran-aligned Houthi militia, Muhammed al-Ghamari. The Israeli military did not comment on the report when asked, stating only that it would report on the results of the attack. Yemen's Houthi rebels, who control large parts of the civil war-torn country, have been attacking Israel with missiles and drones since the beginning of the Gaza Strip war in October 2023, in what they say are acts of solidarity with Palestinian militant group Hamas. The attacks have intensified again since mid-March, prompting Israel to launch air strikes on Houthi targets in Yemen. According to unconfirmed media reports, the Houthi forces joined Iran in firing missiles at Israel overnight amid the military escalation between the two regional rivals triggered by Israeli attacks on Friday.
