Israeli airstrikes on Sunday struck multiple locations in Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, killing six people and injuring dozens in retaliation for recent Houthi missile attacks on Israeli territory, including a claimed strike toward Ben Gurion Airport with a ballistic missile carrying cluster munitions. The Israeli Defence Forces said they targeted military sites such as power plants, fuel depots, and a facility housing the presidential palace, accusing the Houthis of using them for military purposes, while the Iranian-backed group, which controls northern Yemen, confirmed the casualties and vowed continued support for the Palestinian cause. The strikes have deepened Yemen’s humanitarian crisis by damaging critical civilian infrastructure, further destabilizing a country already weakened by years of conflict, even as the violence underscores the broader regional tensions tied to Israel’s war in Gaza and the involvement of Iran-backed groups like the Houthis.
