Israel is launching an attack on Sanaa airport in Yemen | Houthis News

Four strikes hit the track and an Yemenia Airways plane, according to the media report affiliated with Houth-Affilié.

Israel says he has launched air strikes at Yemen ‘main airport in the capital, Sanaa, one day after the Yemen Houthi rebels fired two projectiles to Israel.

On Wednesday, the media affiliated with Houth-Affilicié reported on Wednesday that four strikes had struck the track.

Khaled Al-Shaief, managing director of Sanaa International Airport, wrote on X that the strike had completely destroyed the last of the civil aircraft Yemenia Airways operated from the airport.

Israeli Minister of Defense Israel Katz said on Wednesday that the Israeli Air Force had struck “terrorism targets” at the airport and “destroyed the last remaining plane”.

“This is a clear message and a continuation of our policy: the one who shoots the state of Israel will pay a high price,” said Katz.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement that any damage to Israel would be welcomed with greater force.

“But, as I said more than once, the Houthis are only the symptom. The main driving force behind them is Iran, which is responsible for the assault from Yemen,” said Netanyahu.

The attack occurs one day after the armed group of Houthi pulled two projectiles to Israel which were slaughtered by Israeli air defenses. The Houthis later confirmed that they had launched two “ballistic missiles”.

Sanaa airport, the largest in Yemen, returned to service last week after temporary repairs and the restoration of the tracks after previous Israeli attacks.

It was mainly used by the United Nations planes and the only remaining civilian plane of Yemenia Airways, after three others were destroyed during the last attack.

Since Israel began his war in Gaza in October 2023, the Houthis have repeatedly struck Israel in what they say to be solidarity with the Palestinians in the enclave.

Last week, the Yemeni rebels warned that they would impose a “naval blockade” at the Israeli port in Haifa after Israel accelerated its military offensive in Gaza.

In addition to attacks on Israel, the Houthis had shot ships sent to the Red Sea in November 2023, which had led to military reprisal attacks from the United States and the United Kingdom since January 2024.

However, earlier this month, the United States agreed with a ceasefire with the Houthis, finishing weeks of intense attacks against Houthi bastions in Yemen.
