A Jordanian Source: Israel Steps Up Hostilities in Yemen
Israel carries out aerial attacks in Yemen, according to a representative of the Israeli government. - Israel is conducting air raids on Yemen, according to an official within the Israeli government.
Scoop alert! Israel's been heating things up in Yemen, according to the latest reports coming in.
It looks like the Houthi-controlled Al-Masirah channel has spilled the beans about a series of U.S.-Israeli air raids. These attacks were aimed at the bustling port of Hodeidah on the western coast, and the district of Bajil. They've been dubbed the latest act of aggression in the ongoing conflict, folks!
This escalation of hostilities is a direct response to a Houthi missile hitting near Israel's main international airport, Ben Gurion Airport, a couple of days ago. That rocket caused a major stir, landing just 75 meters from Terminal 3, leaving a chunky crater in its wake and causing quite the traffic jam in the skies above. Several foreign airlines had no choice but to ground their planes, cancelling flights to and from Tel Aviv.
Now, here's the deal: According to our sources, an army of 30 Israeli fighter jets got involved, bombarding suspected arms transference facilities and military outposts in Yemen—sort of like Israel's own brand of whack-a-mole. This latest attack reportedly marks Israel's sixth raid in Yemen since the tension began.
The Houthis, with Iran backing them, are crying foul play, blaming Israel for aggression. And guess who's jumping on the bandwagon? Yep, Iran itself, denouncing Israel's actions as a heinous crime and a clear violation of international law. Iran's foreign ministry also came forward, emphasizing the importance of sticking to the principles of diplomacy and peaceful resolution.
The world is keeping a keen eye on this rollercoaster ride, especially since rumors are swirling that the U.S. might be pulling the strings or even informed about these Israeli airstrikes. But while reports are pouring in, Al Jazeera's yet to confirm any American involvement in the matter.[1][2]
