After repeated ballistic missile attacks on Israel from the Houthis in Yemen, the Israel Defense Forces bombed a Houthi-controlled airport in response, reports The Times of Israel:

Israeli fighter jets bombed the Houthi-controlled Sanaa International Airport in Yemen on Wednesday, in response to the Iran-backed group’s near-daily ballistic missile attacks on Israel.

Since the Israel Defense Force’s last strike on Yemen, on May 16, the Houthis launched at least seven missiles and several drones at Israel, the latest of them on Tuesday morning…

In a statement, the IDF said the strikes hit the airport and an aircraft used by the Houthis “to transport terrorists who advanced terror attacks on Israel.”
