Israeli strikes in Yemen kill 4 people, Houthi-run media say

Israeli forces unleashed a series of strikes on the Yemeni capital Sanaa and the western city of Hodeidah on Thursday, according to Houthi-run media, killing at least four people and injuring more than a dozen others.

The strike on Sanaa International Airport killed at least three people and injured 16 others, al-Masirah television reported. Further west, at least one person was killed in the attack on Hodeidah, added al-Masirah.

Three people have also been reported missing in Hodeidah, and rescue and search operations are ongoing, according to al-Masirah.

The Israeli military said on Thursday it hit “military targets” belonging to Iran-backed Houthis.

“The targets that were struck by the IDF include military infrastructure used by the Houthi terrorist regime for its military activities in both the Sanaa International Airport and the Hezyaz and Ras Kanatib power stations,” the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a statement.

In recent months, the Houthis have fired missiles at Israeli cities in what they say is in response to the Israeli offensive in Gaza, which has killed more than 45,300 Palestinians.

The Israeli military has repeatedly struck Yemen since launching its war in Gaza following the Hamas-led October 7 attack.

Earlier on Thursday, Houthi spokesman Mohammed Abdulsalam said on X that Israel had struck the airport in Sanaa and other “civilian infrastructure,” condemning a “crime against the Yemeni people.”

Power plants were struck in Sanaa and Hodeidah, according to a Telegram channel associated with the Houthis.

The United States and the United Kingdom have previously struck the Houthis after the group disrupted shipping in the Red Sea, one of the world’s busiest waterways.

Last week, a projectile fired from Yemen hit Tel Aviv, injuring at least 16 people. Days before, Israel intercepted another missile launched by the Houthis, with shrapnel causing extensive damage to a school near Tel Aviv.
