Israel prepares for a significant strike against Houthi targets in Yemen
The Houthis have increased their attempts to challenge Israel in recent days. Accordingly, Israeli officials acknowledge that the situation cannot continue and are preparing for a significant strike against Houthi targets in Yemen.
The IAF remains uncertain whether three or four unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) were launched by the Houthis toward Israel on Thursday morning. What is clear, however, is that the Houthis have increased their attempts to challenge Israel in recent days. One UAV was intercepted near Eilat, another was downed using soft defenses, and a third disappeared from radar and has yet to be located.
According to IDF assessments, the escalation of Houthi attacks is partly due to significant blows sustained by the "Axis of Evil." The Houthis are attempting to exploit this weakness to assume a leading role in attacks against Israel. Israeli officials acknowledge that the situation cannot continue and are preparing for the possibility of a third significant strike against Houthi targets in Yemen.
