Israel Bombs Yemeni Power Plants, Seaport; Hezbollah Hits Haifa

The Israeli Air Force (IAF) recently conducted airstrikes on military targets in Yemen, with a particular emphasis on Houthi-controlled sites, such as a seaport and power plants.

The Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) announced in a post on X that they had “striked military targets belonging to the Houthi terrorist regime in Yemen in response to their recent attacks against Israel.”

It further stated, “The targets included power plants and a seaport, which were used by the Houthis to transfer Iranian weapons to the region, in addition to military supplies and oil.”

The IDF reiterated its dedication to the safety of Israeli citizens, stating that the Houthis have been operating under the direction and funding of Iran, as well as in collaboration with Iraqi militias, in order to attack the State of Israel, undermine regional stability, and disrupt global freedom of navigation over the past year. The IDF is resolute in its commitment to continue operating at any distance, whether near or far, in order to protect the citizens of the State of Israel from any and all threats.

In a statement, the health ministry, which is under the control of the Houthis, reported that four individuals were killed and 29 others were injured as a result of Israeli strikes.

In a report published by Times of Israel, IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Herzi Halevi reiterated Israel’s capacity to target enemies at a greater distance following the IAF operation against Houthi forces in Yemen.

“This is not a message; it is an action,” the IDF chief declared following the strikes on the Houthis in Yemen.

He added, “We know how to reach very far, we know how to reach even farther, and we know how to strike there accurately,” Halevi said.

Following the Israeli Air Force’s strikes on Yemen, Israel Defense Minister Yoav Gallant stated, “I visited the IAF command and control center and observed the strike that was conducted today against the Houthi terrorist organization.” There is no place that is too far for us; our message is unambiguous.

Additionally, Hezbollah’s missile strikes against Haifa and northern Israel contributed to the escalation of tensions in the Middle East.

The IDF shared a post on X, stating, “Once again, over one million Israelis are seeking refuge after Hezbollah launched missiles at Haifa and northern Israel.”

It is important to note that the Israeli strikes occurred immediately following the precision strikes conducted by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) on the Lebanese capital of Beirut on Friday, which resulted in the death of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a warning to Iran’s Ayatollah regime following Nasrallah’s death. He asserted that those who target Israel will face “consequences” and that “no location” in Iran or the Middle East is “beyond Israel’s reach.”

Netanyahu referred to Nasrallah as the “primary catalyst of Iran’s axis of evil” and stated, “Nasrallah was not merely another terrorist; he was the terrorist.” The primary engine of Iran’s axis of evil, he was the axis of the axis. The architects of the plan to destroy Israel were he and his people. He was not only operated by Iran, but he also frequently operated Iran.
