Houthis claim missile attack on Israel, pledge more to come
Yemen’s Houthi group has claimed an earlier missile strike on Israel, which the army said was intercepted.
In a statement cited by Yemen’s Saba news, the Houthis said the attack was part of their “initial response” to “Israeli aggression against our country”, after an Israeli attack on Sanaa on Thursday killed numerous senior Houthi officials, including their government’s prime minister.
The Houthis claimed the attack, which Israeli media reported no casualties from, “successfully achieved its objectives”, including forcing Israelis to take shelter.
“Our operations will continue at an escalating pace during the coming period,” said the Houthi statement.
