Israel Vs Houthis BREAKING: Israeli Warships Strike Houthis For The First Time; Hodeidah Port Hit
In a dramatic escalation, Israeli warships have carried out their first-ever naval strike against the Houthis in Yemen, targeting the strategic port city of Hodeidah.
The attack marks a major shift in Israelâs military response to repeated Houthi missile and drone strikes.
According to the Israeli military, the strike was a direct retaliation for a recent hypersonic missile launched from Yemen at Ben Gurion Airport.
Houthi spokesperson Yahya Saree vowed continued attacks until Israel ends its blockade on Gaza.

The war in West Asia has entered a chilling new phase. Mohammad al-Bukhaiti, senior leader of Yemenâs Ansar Allah movement, declared that Israel will âpay the priceâ for its aggression, following the martyrdom of Yemenâs Prime Minister Ahmed al-Rahawi and several ministers in a deadly strike. Speaking to Al Mayadeen, al-Bukhaiti emphasized that retaliation is inevitable, stressing, âOur actions will precede our words.â He reaffirmed that the liberation of Palestine remains Yemenâs foremost cause and vowed continued support for Gaza despite the heavy sacrifices. The Ansar Allah Political Bureau also issued a statement mourning fallen Yemeni leaders and warning Tel Aviv of looming consequences. Yemenâs message is clear: its strikes have already punished the US and Britain, and now Israel will face similar retribution. With tensions rising, the region braces for what Ansar Allah promises will be dark days for Israel.

Israel claims a major breakthrough in its war against Hamas, announcing that IDF forces likely killed Abu Obeida, the long-time masked spokesman of the group. Considered Hamasâ most symbolic figure after Sinwar, Obeidaâs death would mark one of the heaviest blows to the organization. The strike follows Israelâs killing of Yemenâs Houthi PM earlier this week, signaling an intensified campaign across the region. While Gaza reports 11 casualties in the raid, Israeli officials remain cautiously optimistic, calling this a turning point in the fight against Hamas.

Yemeni state TV has officially confirmed the death of Prime Minister Ahmed Al-Rahawi, declaring him a âmartyrâ after an Israeli airstrike on Sanaâa. The presidency of Yemenâs Houthi-led government said the prime minister and several ministers were killed during a routine government workshop on August 28. For days, Houthis had denied Israeli claims of assassinating Al-Rahawi, accusing Tel Aviv of targeting only civilians. The announcement comes after weeks of escalating Israeli strikes on Yemen, launched in response to Houthi missile and drone attacks against Israel and Western ships in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden. Thursdayâs deadly attack followed earlier Israeli bombardments that killed 10 people and injured over 90. Despite the assassination, the Houthis vowed to continue military operations in solidarity with Palestinians and Hamas in Gaza, warning that Israelâs aggression will not deter their campaign.

Yemenâs top general, Mohammed al-Ghamari, appeared on TV to deny Israelâs claims of his assassination, calling them âfalse propaganda.â He vowed Yemen will continue missile and drone attacks on Israel until it ends operations in Gaza. The announcement follows heavy Israeli airstrikes on Sanaa, which killed civilians and hit infrastructure. Israel now faces a widening two-front war against Hamas in Gaza and the Houthis in Yemen, straining its military resources and exposing vulnerabilities as its regional conflict escalates.

Hamas has strongly rejected Israelâs claim that Abu Obeida, the masked spokesman of its military wing, has been assassinated. The group insists he is alive, while Israeli sources maintain otherwise, fueling confusion and speculation. The uncertainty has sparked heated debate over who is telling the truth, with both sides using the claim as part of their ongoing psychological and information war.

The Israeli Defense Forces claim to have killed Abu Obeida, the masked spokesman of Hamasâ Al-Qassam Brigades, in a Gaza strike on August 30th. Long considered the âhidden faceâ of Hamas, Obeida has been a symbol of resistance since 2006, when he rose to prominence after the kidnapping of Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit. His identity was never revealed publicly until IDF released an estimated image. Palestinians viewed him as a hero, while Israel marked him as a top target. His death, if confirmed, marks a major blow to Hamas.

Several Israelis were injured after a major Houthi missile strike targeted central Israel, including Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Air raid sirens blared across the region as Israelâs Iron Dome failed to intercept all projectiles, allowing missile fragments to hit residential and strategic areas. Ben Gurion Airport operations were disrupted, and chaos spread across major cities. The Houthi military, led by spokesperson Yahya Saree, claimed responsibility for the attack, describing it as a âsuccessful strike against Israeli targets.â Dramatic videos show explosions, debris, and civilians rushing to shelters, highlighting serious vulnerabilities in Israelâs air defense systems.

Israelâs heartland shook in fear as a long-range Houthi ballistic missile slammed toward Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, with Ben Gurion International Airport directly in the crosshairs. Air raid sirens blared across central Israel as residents rushed to shelters. The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) scrambled multiple interceptors to stop the incoming missile, but eyewitnesses reported seeing fiery debris raining down across the region.
In a televised address, Houthi spokesman Yahya Saree claimed responsibility for three major operations, confirming the direct strike on Israelâs busiest airport. The attack has exposed deep vulnerabilities in Israelâs air defense systems and signals a new phase of escalationâbringing Yemen directly into the Israel conflict.

Yemenâs Houthi Armed Forces claim responsibility for four major drone strikes targeting Israeli sites in Haifa, the Negev, Eilat, and Beersheba. Spokesman Yahya Saree says the attacks were carried out in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza and warns that more operations will follow until the siege is lifted and Israeli aggression ends. Israeli military reports shooting down one drone near Eilat, but the fate of the other five remains unclear.

Yemenâs Armed Forces have delivered a bold message to Israel and the world by penetrating Tel Avivâs missile shield with explosive-laden drones that struck three high-value targets â including a sensitive Israeli site in Jaffa, military infrastructure in Ashkelon, and a strategic zone in the Negev Desert.
Brigadier General Yahya Saree confirmed the success of the operations and warned of continued strikes until the siege and genocide in Gaza end. The strikes form part of Yemenâs relentless campaign of solidarity with Palestine, which has also involved firing advanced ballistic and hypersonic missiles. Meanwhile, Yemen has issued a clarion call to Muslims and Arabs worldwide to rise, protest, and break the Gaza blockade. The message is clear â Gazaâs resistance is not alone, and regional escalation is mounting fast. Is a broader conflict in the Middle East now inevitable?

Houthi forces launched a missile toward Israel after the IDF carried out drone strikes on Yemenâs Hodeidah port, a key hub allegedly used to import Iranian weapons. The Israeli military said the missile was intercepted by its Iron Dome defense system with no injuries reported. Defense Minister Israel Katz warned the Houthis would âpay a heavy priceâ for future attacks. This marks Israelâs 13th strike on Yemen amid escalating missile and drone launches from the region. Since July, six missiles and two drones have targeted Israel without success.

Israel has launched fresh airstrikes on Houthi targets in Yemen's Hodeida port, claiming the site was being used to funnel Iranian weapons for attacks on Israeli and allied interests. The IDF has intensified operations in the Red Sea region, warning Tehran directly with the message: âYemen = Tehran.â This comes amid escalating tensions tied to the Gaza conflict and increasing Houthi drone and missile attacks. The international community watches closely as the Israel-Houthi conflict threatens broader regional stability.

Yemenâs Ansarullah leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi has declared that the reopening of Israelâs Eilat port is now âimpossible,â reaffirming Yemenâs firm blockade on Israeli-linked shipping through the Red Sea, Gulf of Aden, and Arabian Sea. In a defiant televised address, al-Houthi warned all shipping companies against aiding Israel, promising decisive retaliation. He cited the Yemeni Navy's missile strike on the ETERNITY C and the dramatic sinking of the Magic Seas as warnings.
Yemenâs naval campaign began in November 2023 in solidarity with Gaza, following Israelâs bombing campaign. Al-Houthi denounced Israeli airstrikes on Hudaydah and praised Yemenâs missile defense systems. He stated that despite near-total U.S. backing, Israel had failed militarily, especially in Gaza, where resistance fighters killed and wounded nearly 20 Israeli soldiers in a single operation. The Red Sea front, he asserted, now belongs to the resistance â and Eilat is no longer open.

A ballistic missile launched from Yemen by Iran-backed Houthi forces tore through Israeli airspace, triggering air raid sirens across Jaffa and Tel Aviv. The IDF scrambled defenses, intercepting the missile mid-air in what marks a dangerous new phase of the conflict. No longer confined to the Red Sea, the Houthis are now targeting Israeli cities directly. As Israel retaliates with airstrikes on Yemenâs Hodeida region, fears of a broader regional war intensify. Is this the beginning of all-out escalation?

Israel is now battling a dangerous two-front war as Yemeni Houthis join Hamas in striking critical targets. Yemenâs Armed Forces announced they fired a âPalestine-2â hypersonic ballistic missile and armed drones past Israeli interception systems, hitting Ben Gurion Airport, a Tel Aviv military site, and Ashkelon. The attack plunged Ben Gurion into chaos, suspending operations and forcing thousands into shelters. Since October 2023, the Houthis have expanded their campaign of solidarity with Hamas, hitting Israeli ships in the Red Sea and targeting airports in their aerial blockade. With 62,300 Palestinians already killed in Gaza, the Houthis vow to continue their strikes until the war and siege end. Israel has retaliated with airstrikes in Yemen, but the rebels show no signs of backing down. The Gaza war is no longer just in GazaâIsrael is now under fire from multiple fronts.
