Israel launches airstrikes at Yemen's Houthi rebels and Houthis fire 2 missiles back in response
Briefly

Israel's military conducted airstrikes on Houthi-held ports and facilities in Yemen after the rebels targeted Israel with missiles. This offensive followed an attack on a Liberian-flagged ship in the Red Sea, suspected to be linked to the Houthis due to reports of bomb-carrying drone boats. Israeli strikes aimed at disrupting the Houthi's transfer of weapons from Iran. The situation is tense amidst broader regional conflicts, including the ongoing Israel-Hamas war and Iran's nuclear negotiations. Israeli military footage displayed F-16s executing the strike operations against Houthi targets.
The Israeli military stated, 'These ports are used by the Houthi terrorist regime to transfer weapons from the Iranian regime, which are employed to carry out terrorist operations against the state of Israel and its allies.'
Israeli airstrikes targeted Houthi-held ports at Hodeida, Ras Isa and Salif, as well as the Ras Kanatib power plant, following missile fire from the Houthis.
