The Israeli Navy early on August 17 launched strikes against a power plant located south of the Yemeni capital, Sanaa, which is held by the Houthis (Ansar Allah).

In a statement, the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) said that the strikes hit “energy infrastructure used by the Houthi terror regime,” near Sanaa, in response to “repeated attacks by the Houthi terror regime against the State of Israel and its citizens, including the launching of surface-to-surface missiles and UAVs toward Israeli territory.”

The Al-Masirah TV, which is run by the Houthis, said that the Hezyaz power plant was subjected to “an American-Israeli aggression.”

The channel later reported that workers and firefighters had put out a fire caused by the attack, and that work to repair the damage was underway.

Since March 18, when the IDF resumed its offensive in the Gaza Strip, the Houthis have launched close to 70 ballistic missiles and more than 20 suicide drones at targets in Israel. The group also sank two ships directly linked to Israel in the Red Sea.

Israel has so far carried out a total of fourteen attacks against the Houthis in Yemen, located more than 1,800 kilometers away.

The latest attack, reportedly carried out by missile boats, was the second time that the Israeli Navy has struck in Yemen. The first such attack, which took place in June, targeted the Houthi-controlled port of al-Hodeida on the country’s Red Sea coast.

Reports from last month revealed that the IDF was preparing a major, broad-based operation against the Houthis with the aim of neutralizing the threat posed by the group for an extended period. It is unclear if these plans were still on the table, or if the military opted to continue to very limited strikes like the one on the Hezyaz power plant.

and that the alawites who so happily gave their weapons to terrorists will have gray mountains instead of green mountains. without a chance, they graze their sheep and will either be slaughtered by the terrorists with whom they have struck a deal, or die of hunger and thirst, along with their sheep.

the main one will be seen, as you yourself said, when erosion, desertification, landslides, greater heat in summer and greater cold in winter cause the destruction of food production. have syrian reconciliation and rename syria the martian desert!

according to reliable sohr sources, the residents were forced to leave with their clothes only, where members of the security forces informed the residents to forget about their houses and lands, confirming that the village now belongs to the security forces.

it is worth noting that kafr amid village hasn’t been subjected to the fires that have erupted recently in sahl al-ghab.
