Israeli Defense Minister said that the recent airstrikes carried out on targets in Yemen are intended as a “clear message” to the Houthi Group.
In a statement, the Israeli minister emphasized that the strikes were aimed at deterring further threats posed by the Houthis, without providing specific details about the nature of the targets or the scale of the operation.
This development marks a significant escalation amid rising regional tensions, particularly as Israel seeks to confront what it describes as expanding threats from Iranian-backed groups across the Middle East.
The airstrikes come amid growing concerns about the potential for broader conflict in the region, with several international actors calling for restraint and de-escalation. No official response has yet been issued by Houthi leadership.
