At least nine people were killed in Israeli airstrikes on Yemen in what Israel said was in retaliation for months of Houthi aggression. The Israeli air force struck targets in Yemen on Thursday morning in a pre-planned operation shortly after an attempted Houthi missile attack on Israel. Officials told Al Masirah TV, a broadcaster operated by the Iran-backed Houthi rebel movement which controls much of Yemen, that seven people were killed in a strike on the port of Salif and the others in two strikes on the nearby Ras Issa oil facility. Injuries were also reported just down the coast at the port of Hodeida, while further strikes reportedly targeted two power stations near the capital, Sanaa, further inland.
