The terrorist attack in Israel by Yemen's Houthis leaves 8 injured and shocks the world
The defense ministry of Israel has confirmed that the Yemeni Houthi terrorists have launched a missile strike against Israel. One of the missiles fired by Houthis landed on the premier Israel's Ben Gurion airport, leaving a 25-meter (or about 82 feet) deep crater and injuring 8 Israelis.
The Israelis used their Iron Dome to intercept the multiple missiles fired by Houthis, but one of them managed to escape the Iron Dome dragnet and struck the Israeli airport! This is very surprising if you consider the Iron Dome technology and how it has managed tos so far been able to stop multiple missile, drone, and autonomous weapons attacks by Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis, and even Iran. Israeli Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu has promised the Israeli population that the Israeli Army will take "sevenfold revenge" in response to this attack.
On a side note, the Israelis are always honest regarding terms like "sevenfold response". This has already been proven by the battle-hardened Israeli military time and again with the pager attacks on Hezbollah or the raids on Hamas and in Syria. On a TV show, Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree has said that "The airport is no longer safe for travel" and Houthis would keep firing their long-range missiles at Israel till they withdraw from Gaza.
Israelis are investigating how the missile managed to get past the Iron Dome. Israel has usually allowed the Houthis to launch missiles for the past 12 months, assuming that these will be intercepted, while Israel has launched multiple raids, using warplanes to attack the Houthis. However, it has stepped aside once the United States Army started its own strikes against the Yemeni terrorists. The U.S. Navy has so far launched nearly 800 raids in Yemen in reply to its targeting the US and European commercial container ships. has launched its own airstrikes on the Houthis, which started on March 15th. The U.S. campaign has at least two aircraft carriers operating in the Arabian Peninsula for Houthi targets in Yemen. For years, the ragtag coalition of the Houthis has been terrorising the whole Middle East with their long-range missile and drone attacks, which are supplied by their ally Iran
With the United States launching multiple raids on Houthi targets in Yemen daily, opening this additional front with Israel, the situation is absolutely a pitfall for the Houthis.
