SANAA: The Israeli military attacked the Houthi-controlled capital of Yemen on Thursday, four days after a deadly round of bombings against the Iran-backed group, both Israel and the militant group said.

Israeli forces “struck a Houthi terrorist regime military target in the area of Sanaa,” the military said in a statement.

The Houthi news channel Al-Massirah earlier posted on X: “Israeli aggression on the capital Sanaa.”

Israel has been targeting the rebel group in retaliation for its missile and drone attacks which the Houthis say are in support of the Palestinians.

Israeli strikes on Monday killed 10 people and wounded more than 90 in Sanaa, according to the Houthi authorities in the city.
