Israel carried out powerful airstrikes on Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, after a Houthi ballistic missile attack, leaving six people dead and over 80 wounded. The Israeli military said more than ten fighter jets hit multiple targets, including a presidential compound, power plants, and a fuel facility. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu warned that further Houthi aggression would carry a heavy price. The Houthis, aligned with Iran, have frequently targeted Israel and Red Sea shipping since the Gaza war began, calling their operations solidarity with Palestinians. Sunday’s strikes mark a sharp escalation, underlining the widening regional fallout of the conflict.
