Israel's defence chief threatens to retaliate for Houthi missiles

  • On Tuesday night, after sirens sounded across Israel, the military successfully shot down a missile fired from Yemen by Houthi forces targeting Israeli territory.
  • This incident took place amid ongoing hostilities since Hamas's attack in October 2023 and followed a brief but intense conflict during which Israel conducted focused strikes against Iran's nuclear and military infrastructure.
  • The missile, identified by Huthi forces as a hypersonic ballistic weapon known as Palestine 2, was reportedly launched towards Lod Airport in the occupied Yaffa area, prompting air raid sirens to sound across several regions in Israel to warn residents to take cover.
  • Israel's Defense Minister Israel Katz declared that Yemen would face consequences comparable to those imposed on Tehran, warning that any aggression directed at Israel would be met with severe retaliation.
  • The interception highlights Israel's advanced missile defense capabilities and suggests that heightened tensions may lead to further retaliatory strikes in Yemen and increased regional conflict.
