The IDF confirms carrying out airstrikes in Yemen a short while ago, saying it comes as a response to the Houthis ballistic missile attack yesterday on Ben Gurion Airport and other previous attacks.
According to the military, the strikes carried out by Israeli Air Force fighter jets targeted Houthi infrastructure along the coast of Yemen, including at the Hodeidah port and a concrete factory near the nearby city of Bajil, some 2,000 kilometers from Israel.
The IDF says the Hodeidah port is used by the Houthis “for the transfer of Iranian weapons, equipment for military needs, and other terror purposes.”
The Bajil concrete factory “serves as an important economic resource for the Houthi terror regime and is used for building tunnels and military infrastructure,” the military says, adding that the strikes “constitute a blow to the regime’s economy and its military buildup.”

Joint Israel-US force strikes Yemen in retaliation for Houthi attack on Israeli airport
The Houthis have officially acknowledged the attacks, claiming both Israeli and American forces are involved.
By JNS, May 5, 2025:
A senior Israeli official confirmed to N12 News on Monday night that Israel is conducting joint airstrikes with the United States against Houthi targets in Yemen, following Sunday’s ballistic missile attack near Ben Gurion Airport.
According to Arabic media reports cited by N12, over 30 Israeli fighter jets are participating in the strikes on the port city of Hudaydah.
The Houthis have officially acknowledged the attacks, claiming both Israeli and American forces are involved.
The Houthi missile strike injured six people and temporarily grounded flights at Israel’s main international airport.
ADVERTISEMENTAccording to an initial Israeli Air Force inquiry, the missile was likely not intercepted due to a technical malfunction in the interceptor itself.
The investigation found no issues with the detection systems or alert protocols.
Officials stressed that the incident was isolated, noting that Israel has maintained a 95% success rate in intercepting missiles launched from Yemen since the war began.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed retaliation, stating: “We have acted and will act again. There will be blows.”
