Houthis Claim Responsibility for First Attack Against Israel

The Houthi rebels in Yemen announced their first attack against Israel since the start of the war in the Middle East. Their military affairs spokesman, Yahya Saria, stated that they targeted military installations in Israel with a barrage of missiles. The Israeli armed forces confirmed the launch of a missile from Yemen and its interception by anti-aircraft defense systems. The Houthis, allies of Iran, have launched dozens of attacks against Israel and commercial ships in the Red Sea since the end of 2023, in solidarity with the Palestinians.
