The Israeli military said on Sunday it was striking several Houthi rebel targets in Yemen, including power stations and a seaport, using dozens of aircraft.
The strikes came a day after the Iran-backed rebel group said it targeted Israel’s Ben Gurion Airport with a missile.
“In a large-scale air operation today, dozens of Air Force aircraft, including fighter jets, refuelling planes and reconnaissance aircraft, attacked military-use targets of the Houthi terrorist regime in the Ras Issa and Hodeida areas of Yemen,” military spokesman Captain David Avraham said in a statement to Agence France-Presse.
“The IDF [military] targeted power stations and a seaport used for oil imports,” a military statement said.
