Escalating Conflict: Israel Strikes Houthi Targets in Yemen as Tensions Rise

Recent military actions have seen Israel conducting airstrikes on Houthi positions in Yemen, targeting significant infrastructure including airports and power plants. This escalation follows a week of heightened tensions marked by missile launches from Houthi militants, with a recent attack injuring several in Tel Aviv. Israeli officials confirm that they are responding to repeated Houthi missile strikes, including attacks on Israeli schools and city centers. In retaliation, Israel has increased airstrikes across Yemen and is urging international support to address the Houthi threat, which they associate with Iran. The situation remains tense as both sides prepare for continued conflict, with the Houthis raising their combat readiness levels amid fears of further Israeli strikes.
