An oil facility and a power plant in Sanaa were both targets, according to Al Masirah TV, a Houthi-affiliated organization. Israel claimed that it also targeted a “military complex” in the Yemeni capital, as well as a presidential palace.
According to Al Masirah, the attacks resulted in at least two fatalities and 35 serious injuries.
Two days after the Houthis claimed a missile launch against Israel, Israel was the subject of Israeli strikes as part of a Palestinian organization’s campaign to pressure Israel into putting an end to its hostility and occupation of Gaza.
The Israeli military claimed that the Houthi terrorist regime had repeatedly attacked Israel and its citizens, including by launching surface-to-surface missiles and unmanned aerial vehicles into its territory.
According to a Houthi military official, the group’s air defenses “neutralized most of the Israeli enemy aircraft participating in the aggression and forced them to leave.”
After the Israeli attacks, fire and smoke erupted over Sanaa in footage obtained by Al Jazeera.
The Houthis quickly reaffirmed on Sunday that the group’s military support for Palestinians will not be hindered by the Israeli attacks.
Houthi official Mohammed al-Bukhaiti stated in a statement that “the Israeli aggression against Yemen will not prevent us from continuing our support for Gaza, no matter the sacrifices.”
“Eternity in heaven or hell is the solution is now apparent to us,” he said.
Houthi Defense Ministry official Abed al-Thawr called Israeli claims that it attacked military installations on Sunday “lies.” He claimed that Israel bombed Yemeni civilian infrastructure to cause suffering.
Al-Thawr claimed that the presidential palace, which was attacked on Sunday, has been deserted for a while. He claimed that what Israel is doing is barbarism.
The Houthi-dominated Government of Change and Reconstruction in Sanaa also referred to the Israeli attack as a “war crime” that shows columns of smoke rising above Sanaa and aims to hurt Yemenis and lead to a “fake victory.”
The Israeli government is conducting an open war against the Arab and Muslim world, according to a statement released by the organization.
Israel has been bombing Yemeni ports and power plants for a month. However, the attack on Sunday occurred shortly after last week’s Israeli navy attack on a Sanaa power station.
