The strike comes in response to the Iran-backed group’s repeated missile and drone attacks on Israel, including a hit on Ben Gurion Airport on Sunday that wounded several people.
IDF says Sanaa airport ‘completely disabled’; power stations, cement factory also targeted
The IDF in a statement confirms launching a wave of airstrikes in Yemen, saying it destroyed the Houthi-controlled Sanaa International Airport, in response to the Iran-backed group’s repeated missile and drone attacks on Israel, including a hit on Ben Gurion Airport on Sunday that wounded several people.
The airport in the Houthi capital is now “completely disabled” following the strikes carried out by Israeli Air Force fighter jets, the military says.
The IDF says that the airport was used by the Houthis “for transferring weapons and operatives, and is regularly operated by the Houthi regime for terror purposes.”
Ahead of the strike on the airport, the IDF issued a warning to civilians.
Additionally, the IDF says it targeted several power stations near Sanaa that were used by the Houthis, along with a cement factory north of the capital, used by the group to construct infrastructure and tunnels.
The strike on the concrete factory “constitutes a blow to the regime’s economy and its military buildup,” the military says.

There is a mental illness in the middle east that cannot be explained (all sides), this insanity is being fueled by others who seem to have a different, but just as deranged mental illness.
