Israel Launches Airstrikes in Yemen Following Houthi Missile Attacks

Israel has conducted a series of airstrikes targeting the capital of Yemen, Sanaa, after Houthi rebels launched missiles that struck near Tel Aviv airport. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) reported that the strikes completely disabled Sanaa airport, along with additional targets including power stations and a cement factory. This escalation comes in the wake of a missile fired by the Houthis that disrupted flights in Israel, prompting a joint response from Israeli and US forces. Civilians in Yemen express concerns over the devastation caused by the airstrikes, while the Houthis have vowed to develop new weaponry to challenge Israeli military actions. Multiple airlines have suspended flights to Israel amid the rising tensions and ongoing conflicts in the region.
