The Houthi movement, which has been launching missiles and sending explosive-laden drones towards Israel from western Yemen for a week, announced a new wave of attacks on Wednesday evening.
The Iran-backed Houthis say they have launched a wide range of armed drone attacks on multiple targets in Israel. The group that controls western Yemen also confirmed that military operations would continue to support the Palestinians.
On the other hand, the Houthi media interpreted their statements as “This is just the beginning!” Yemen officially announces the flooding of Al-Aqsa Mosque. In reference to the fact that the Houthis launched a drone attack on Israel for the fourth time within 24 hours, Al Masirah TV included the phrase “historic announcement.”
Houthi TV argued that the United States did not read the warnings coming from Yemen well, and stressed that there were other military options in addition to missile attacks against the Israeli-American bloc.
A US warship shot down missiles launched from Yemen last week, and suicide drones were also intercepted. However, sirens sounded at the beginning of the week in the city of Eilat, the southernmost city of Israel. The Israeli army announced the downing of a suicide drone, and the Houthis showed the world photos of the missiles and armed drones they launched into Israel.
Israel, which has been clashing with Hezbollah, another Iranian-backed group, on the Lebanese border since the second day of the war, faced the new front open from the south.
Al-Masirah TV reported that the Houthis control the Bab al-Mandab Strait at the end of the Red Sea, and stressed that they are not afraid of America and Israel.
