Houthis have vowed to continue attacks unless Israel halts its Gaza offensive and lifts the siege. In response, Israel has launched air raids on Yemen’s Hodeidah port, targeting sites linked to the Houthis. The Israeli military claims these sites channel weapons for attacks against Israel. The Houthis, who control northern Yemen, claimed drone and missile attacks on Israeli targets, declaring these strikes a response to Israel's actions. They have attacked Red Sea shipping lanes in solidarity with Gaza, prompting Israel's continued military response against Houthi positions.
The Israeli military claimed that the port serves as a channel for weapons used by the Houthis to carry out terrorist operations against Israel and its allies.
The drone attack successfully achieved its objectives, he said, adding that operations would continue until Israel ends its offensive on Gaza and lifts the siege.
Since Israel launched its war on Gaza in October 2023, the Houthis have carried out several attacks on shipping lanes in the Red Sea, saying they were acting in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza.
The Houthis will pay a heavy price for launching missiles toward the State of Israel, Katz said.
