Israel Launches New Round of Strikes Against Houthis in Yemen
- On May 16, 2025, Israel launched airstrikes targeting Houthi-controlled ports in Yemen in response to missile attacks toward Israeli airspace.
- The strikes followed repeated missile and drone attacks by the Houthis, who have fired at least 34 projectiles since the Israel-Hamas war began in October 2023.
- Israel’s Prime Minister and Defence Minister have pledged to track down the leader of the Houthi movement, Abdul Malik al-Houthi, and to target the group’s infrastructure that facilitates attacks.
- Netanyahu stated, "The strikes are just the beginning" and claimed Houthis act as a tool backed by Iran against Israel, while Katz compared al-Houthi's fate to that of Hamas commanders killed by Israel.
- These operations indicate Israel's intent to escalate military action against the Houthis despite a US-Houthi truce that excludes Israel, suggesting continued regional instability.
