Israel Strikes Yemen-Based Houthis Amid WHO Chief's Visit | Firstpost America

Israel has conducted multiple airstrikes on several targets linked to Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen. The airstrikes killed at least 6 people and struck Yemen’s only international airport in the capital Sana’a. It also struck several Houthi military infrastructures, power stations and ports on Yemen’s west coast. The Israeli strikes on Yemen’s capital began just as the World Health Organisation’s Director-General, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, was about to board a plane at the Sana’a airport. The WHO chief was in Yemen to seek the release of detained staff members and assess the humanitarian situation in the war-torn country. The UN Secretary-General denounced the strikes and called for utmost restraint among the warring parties. The latest strikes came after the Houthis repeatedly fired drones and missiles towards Tel Aviv in solidarity with the Palestinians in Gaza. So, with tensions escalating in the Middle East, would the Houthis escalate tensions against Israel? Watch the video to know more.
