The past decade of internationalised civil war in Yemen demonstrates that the Houthi leadership is undeterred by military strikes,
The Houthis will be emboldened by their growing notoriety and relish their engineered status as defenders of Palestine,
For the rebels, these attacks serve as a powerful propaganda tool. They can rally their supporters by framing themselves as defenders against a new external aggressor,
Additionally, the damage to the power station in Hodeida, coupled with the blistering summer heat, will significantly worsen the suffering of the local population,
Component parts for missiles can be delivered along various routes and do not require massive port facilities,
They legitimise Houthi claims that they are waging a war with Israel,
Arms smuggling will continue and even increase, and the attack will not deter or stop Houthi attacks but could actually increase them."
The only way to defuse this escalatory crisis is to reach an immediate cease-fire in Gaza that stops the bloodletting of Palestinians and the tragedy of Israeli hostages and Palestinians prisoners,
Hezbollah and the Houthis have repeatedly said that they will not stop attacking Israel unless the latter ends its war against the Palestinians in Gaza,
What are Iran going to do?”
In a logical scenario, the Houthis will realize they cross the line and that Israel has an enormous amount of firepower,
It is vital that the international community works to de-escalate tensions in Yemen,
Alongside the immediate harm to civilians these Israeli airstrikes have caused, further escalation threatens both access for aid organizations and to disrupt supply chains, in a country which relies heavily on imports, in particular for food, medicine and fuel,
I believe we’re inside the 10-yard line and driving toward the goal line in getting an agreement that would produce a cease-fire, get the hostages home and put us on a better track to trying to build lasting peace and stability,
Israel’s war in Gaza threatens to escalate into all-out war,
The fire that is currently burning in Hodeidah is seen across the Middle East and the significance is clear,
Whoever wants to see a stable and safe Middle East needs to stand against Iran's axis of evil, and support Israel's struggle against Iran and its proxies,
Anyone who harms us will pay a very heavy price for their aggression,
The Kingdom will not allow its airspace to be infiltrated by any party,
The Houthis attacked us over 200 times. The first time that they harmed an Israeli citizen, we struck them. And we will do this in any place where it may be required,
