On Sunday, a Houthi ballistic missile evaded Israel’s multilayered aerial defenses and landed near Ben-Gurion International Airport.

Israel said on Monday that it retaliated for repeated attacks from Yemen's Houthis by striking multiple targets belonging to the "Houthi terrorist regime." Israel said it struck infrastructure sites in the Hudaydah port that serve as a "central supply source" for the Iran-backed Houthis and also hit the Bajil Concrete Plant east of the city.
