Yemen’s Houthi forces have launched a bold and strategic series of strikes, targeting Israeli and US military assets in retaliation for ongoing aggression against Yemen and in support of Palestinians in Gaza.

Yemen’s armed forces have carried out two operations targeting two Israeli sites and a US warship, Yemen’s military spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree said in a statement on Tuesday.

Authorities suspended all flights at Israel's Ben Gurion Airport and redirected incoming planes to alternative locations following reports of two missiles launched from Yemen, Al Jazeera reported, citing Israeli media.
