The Israeli army says dozens of aircraft have struck Houthi targets in Yemen in response to a recent attack on Israel.
Israel says it has bombed Houthi targets in Yemen in response to missile fire by the Iran-aligned rebels at Israel over the past two days, marking another front in fighting in the Middle East. The Israeli strikes killed at least four people and wounded 29, the Houthi-run health ministry said in a statement, and residents said the bombing had caused power outages in most parts of the port city of Hodeidah.
After killing longtime Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah , Israel on Sunday vowed to keep up its assault. "It has lost its head, and we need to keep hitting Hezbollah hard," Israel's military chief of staff Herzi Halevi said. Hezbollah and Israel have been trading fire across the border since the start of the war in Gaza, which was triggered by the October 7 attack by Hamas militants.
