The pictures from Yemen show that these are significant targets and intense attacks.

This can also be learned from the huge fire that is currently burning in the area.

When Israel damages (according to the publications) the Houthi oil reserves – it significantly damages an important economic source of the Houthis, after 9 months of their significant damage to the Israeli economy at the port of Eilat

Al-Arabiya network claims now that the attack in Yemen — Is by Israel, the USA and the UK — but this is as yet unconfirmed.

NEWSRAEL: If this is an IAF attack – it would be the first Israeli attack after 9 months of Yemeni attacks, in which the Biden administration demanded we do not respond.

Behind the unusual scenes of the attack in Yemen

Prime Minister Netanyahu insisted on a significant attack, and not a relatively minor “demonstration of capability” as was done in Iran.

In the end, and after confrontations in the room, Netanyahu’s line was accepted and it was decided to attack the Houthis’ oil infrastructure.

This goal was chosen for several reasons:

The Houthis have almost no sources of income except for the oil industry – we hit them where it hurts the most.
A message to Iran: your oil facilities, which are no further than those of the Houthis – next in line.
A strong mind effect due to the massive explosions in the refineries and other oil infrastructures.

The Air Force planes covered a distance of about 4,000 km (round trip), as mentioned – slightly greater than the distance to Iran and back. Squadron 120 (“Desert Giants”) participated in the attack, the refueling squadron of the Air Force, which helped the attack planes reach their destination and return safely.

DM Gallant: “The fire that burning in Yemen can be seen all over the Middle East”

The first time the Houthis harmed an Israeli citizen, we prepared them — we will do it as much as it takes, the blood of Israeli citizens is not in vain”

“I have now left the air force pit where I stayed together with the prime minister, the chief of staff and the commander of the air force following the attack by the air force planes in the port of Hodeida, 2,000 kilometers from the State of Israel.”

“The fire now burning in Hodeidah is seen all over the Middle East and this matter has clear implications. The Houthis have attacked us over 200 times – the first time they hit an Israeli citizen we prepared them and we will do it wherever this is required.’
