Israel Announces New Operation Against Yemeni Houthis

In a newly launched operation dubbed "Black Flag," the IDF struck several ports, a power plant, and a cargo ship in Yemen, Defense Minister Israel Katz announced early on Monday. He threatened Yemen with "the fate of Tehran" for missile attacks on Israel.

The Houthi air force was repelling Israeli overnight attacks, the movement's military spokesman Brig. Gen. Yahya Saree said.

A Yemeni source confirmed to Sputnik that Israeli aircraft hit the port of Al Hudaydah in western Yemen, where loud explosions were heard.

On Sunday, the IDF intercepted a missile fired from Yemen toward Israeli territory. The Houthis later claimed they had targeted Ben Gurion Airport with a hypersonic ballistic missile.
