Israeli Military Strike Report
Air Force fighter jets, under the direction of the Intelligence and Navy branches, attacked terrorist targets of the Houthi terrorist regime in the western coastal strip and deep inside Yemen. The attack was carried out in response to repeated attacks by the Houthi terrorist regime against the State of Israel, its citizens, and civilian infrastructure in the country, including the launch of unmanned aerial vehicles and surface-to-surface missiles into the country's territory. The State of Israel has the right and obligation to defend itself. Among the targets attacked were infrastructure at the Hezaz power station, which serves as a central power infrastructure for the Houthi terrorist regime in its military activities. In addition, infrastructure was attacked at the ports of Ras Issa and Hodeidah on the western coast of Yemen. The targets attacked illustrate the military use made by the Houthi terrorist regime of civilian infrastructure for terrorism. The Houthi terrorist regime constitutes a central branch of Iranian-backed terrorism and leads to the disruption of regional order and the disruption of global freedom of navigation. The Houthi terrorist regime operates as an independent terrorist organization, relying on Iranian cooperation and funding, in order to harm the State of Israel and its citizens. The IDF will continue to act forcefully and strike anyone who poses a threat to the citizens of the State of Israel, at whatever distance is necessary.
