The Iran-backed Houthis (Ansar Allah) continue to carry out attacks even as the United States launches more strikes against Yemen.
Late on March 18, a missile attack targeted Israel with the Houthis claiming responsibility. In a statement, the group’s military spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree said that the group launched a Palestine-2 hypersonic ballast missile at Nevatim air base in the Negev desert.
The spokesman warned that they would continue to expand their range of targets in Israel in the coming hours and days unless Israel were to halt its renewed aerial campaign in the Gaza Strip.
The Israel Defense Forces said it had successfully intercepted the missile before it could reach Israel’s borders, shooting it down with the long-range Arrow defense system over Saudi Arabia. Still, the missile sent thousands running for shelter, with sirens blaring in numerous towns across southern Israel, including Beersheba and Dimona.
Overnight, more U.S. strikes targeted Houthi-controlled areas in Yemen. The strikes hit the Red Sea port city of Hodeida in addition to the Al-Safra district in the northern province of Saada, the heartland of the Houthis. No casualties were reported.
From its side, the U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) confirmed its “continuous operations against Iran-back Houthi terrorists.”
Later on March 19, the Houthis announced that cruise missiles and drones targeted the USS Harry S. Truman carrier group in an attack that was “the fourth within 72 hours.”
“The U.S. aggression will not deter the steadfast and struggling Yemen from fulfilling its religious, moral, and humanitarian duties toward the Palestinian people,” the group’s military spokesman said in a statement.
The U.S. military began launching strikes against the Houthis on March 15 upon orders from President Donlad Trump, who said that the large-scale attack was a response to the group’s attacks on shipping.
The strikes killed 53 people and left around a hundred others wounded. CENTCOM, which is responsible for the operations of American forces in the Middle East, described the large-scale attack as the start of a large-scale operation targeting the Houthis across Yemen.
Israel will likely join the U.S. military campaign against the Houthis in response to the missile attack. However, this will not necessarily deter the Houthis, who appear to be determined to continue to launch attacks against Israeli territories and vessels linked to the country.

the sand-apes will be exterminated…heheheh
how’s that working for ya?
the yidz mass murder their amerikunt bit*hes in broad daylight, uss liberty, 9/11, turkish aid convoy, rachel corrie, so they certainly have no qualms about mass murdering “sand apes.” after all, murdering a goy, any goy, is a mitzvah. a praiseworthy act. they got a bit bored waiting for them to starve to death so they decided to use all the 2000 lb. bombs shabbos goy chumpo has just sent them.
is that you cleaner upper?😊 how many profilers do you have here? is the medicine not working for your head? again little boy. it isn’t our fault you were born by a thousand bastards of fathers from a goat mother that made you a bastard yourself and that didn’t want anything from you. try and get some attention somewhere else boy. 😊
ridi pagliaccio
like afghanistan
zio-pigs and amercunts are the real cowards….no airforce= no balls at the ground
yea right, am i the only one awake? everyday i see these post about iran and houthis doing some retaliate stuff but in the meantime 500 palestinians death and mabye 100 more settlements. who are you guys actually fooling? you are not killing any jews or destroying anything of real vallue. it almost feels like iran and the houthis live in the 80’s and are not really aware of the sophistications of this world. try bombing tel aviv with 1000’s jews death and burned alive, then we can talk
common bitching from a bullshit retard.
how do you comment on the fact that quasi-peacemaker tulsi gabbard is calling for the arrest of the houthi leader? if this really happens, dump will lock him up in a salvadoran prison lead by the palestinian bukele. then he will see what hypocrites and liars the palestinians are. the iranian ayatollah is leading iran worse than the dead kim led north korea when he was already dead.dead shapour bakhtiar would lead the shiites better.
tulsi in puppet clothes speaking puppet words .
what an enormous waste of america’s pride and potential as well as money in the useless pursuit of zionist goals.
tulsi gabbard was a peacemaker, but now she’s calling for the arrest of the houthi leader. the is certain, they will hand it over to mabus’s gunmen. or they will lock him up in a salvadoran prison lead by the palestinian bukele. such peacemakers are dump and tulsi. with peacekeepers like that, you don’t need enemies. just like with allies like iran and russia, you don’t need enemies.
sad tulsi has gone to the dark side . the yemen leader follows the peoples will . not like the dystopian leaders we have and see .
sad ? you’re on the wrong planet if you think that there’d be any deviation from the zio script. smoke and mirrors jewsa style – jfk records release which amount to nothing. how unexpected.
maybe i can moderate if tulsi gives me a little pussie.
israel breaks ceasefire , iran forced into self defense . team amerika carriers groups in harms way supporting genocide . the indoctrinated chosen-ites are not worth it .
they are so useless houthies dont even hit there targets
