Yemeni journalist and political commentator Hussain al-Bukhaiti reports that the Ansar Allah movement also known as the Houthis has vowed to respond to the “dozens” of Israeli attacks with new missile strikes targeting Israeli airports and energy infrastructure in the coming hours.
“They have announced Ben Gurion airport has become a legitimate target and warned airlines they should not use that airport,” al-Bukhaiti told Al Jazeera. “They’ve said any causalities caused will be the responsibility of Israel and those airlines.”
The retaliation could involve “dozens of ballistic missiles, drones, and cruise missiles”, he added.
The Houthis will continue their attacks until Israel agrees to a ceasefire with Hamas in Gaza, removes its blockade on aid reaching the Palestinians, and “stops its genocide”, said al-Bukhaiti.
