At least two people were killed and five others injured in Israeli airstrikes on Yemen’s capital, Sanaa, on Sunday.
The Israeli military said the strikes targeted a military base near the presidential palace, two power stations, and a fuel storage facility, in retaliation for Houthi missile launches.
Houthis had earlier claimed to have fired a ballistic missile toward Israel as a show of solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza. Israeli officials said the projectile may have carried multiple sub-munitions designed to explode midair.
This marks the first reported launch of such a missile from Yemen. The Houthis vowed to continue attacks “in solidarity with Gaza.”
