#3 The IDF confirmed on Sunday that during an extensive, intelligence-based aerial operation, dozens of IAF aircraft—including fighter jets, mid-air refueling aircraft, and intelligence aircraft struck military targets belonging to the Houthi terrorist rebels in the Ras Isa and Hudaydah areas of Yemen.

The targets included power plants and a seaport used to import oil, which was "used by the Houthi terrorist regime to transfer Iranian weapons to the region, in addition to military supplies and oil," the IDF stated.

#9 Was this a counter-force strike that diminishes or eliminates the Houthi's ability to attack free navigation on international waters?

The Houthi's may be backwards savages but so far they did manage to cause huge damage to the world's economy by expending a pittance.

#10 ^It was to teach the Houthis not to fire rockets at Israel. "free navigation on international waters" is our problem?

#11 @10 "the port (of Eilat) is in a state of bankruptcy", so the attack on free navigation is also part of the Houthi's war on Israel.

#12 ^Yea, well, we've enough problems of our own. Freedom of navigation is your problem. Say "thank you" that we're cutting Iran's hands off.
