Houthis claim overnight missile attacks on Israel, US aircraft carrier
2025-01-01
Big talk. As usual, the missile was shot down long before it reached Israel. No word about the aircraft carrier
[IsraelTimes] Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi rebels say that they had fired two missiles at Israel, hours after the Israeli military said it had intercepted a projectile launched from the country.

“The first (attack) targeted Ben Gurion Airport” in Tel Aviv, and the second was fired at a power station south of Jerusalem, a Houthi military statement says.

The rebels also said they had attacked the American aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman. There is no immediate comment from the US military.

Late last night, the Israeli military said it had shot down a missile launched from Yemen before it crossed into Israeli territory. There were no injuries.

Al Masirah: Ansar Allah movement attacks US aircraft carrier

As reported by Regnum News Agency, earlier on December 31, Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saria said that the Ansar Allah movement had attacked the US aircraft carrier Harry S. Truman using cruise missiles and drones. According to him, the group's fighters carried out the attack when the ship was preparing to strike Yemeni territory.

On December 26, Israel Defense Forces (IDF) aircraft carried out a series of airstrikes during a speech by Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi. According to the Shiite movement, six people were killed and 40 were wounded.

At the time of the Israeli bombing of Sana'a airport, the Director General of the World Health Organization (WHO) Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus was in one of the airport's waiting rooms. After the incident, he reported that he was not injured.
