Escalating Conflict: Israel Launches Strikes on Yemeni Airport Amid Houthi Attacks

Tensions in the Middle East have escalated as Israel conducts extensive airstrikes on Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, targeting Houthi-controlled facilities including the main airport. These attacks come on the heels of a Houthi missile strike that reached near Tel Aviv airport, prompting a call from Israel for an evacuation of the Yemen airport and leading to the suspension of airline flights to Israel. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) reported that numerous munitions were dropped, effectively disabling key infrastructures. Following these developments, both Israel and the U.S. seem to be coordinating a response, with reports of U.S. assistance in the strikes while Iranian officials urge Washington to withdraw support for Israeli actions. Civilians in Sanaa are experiencing chaos, and the repercussions of missile strikes in proximity to civilian areas have drawn widespread condemnation. The situation remains tense as both sides display military readiness and exchange threats of further attacks.
