Israel said the bombing of the airport, which was targeted for the second time this month, had destroyed the last plane used by the Iran-backed Houthi militia.

Israeli warplanes struck the Houthi-controlled Sanaa International Airport in Yemen on Wednesday morning, the Israel Defense Forces said.

Al-Mashat added that Yemeni missiles can reach their targets, and shelters would not ensure safety for Israelis. He described the Israeli strike on the Sanaa airport as a sign of Israeli frustration with Houthi attacks. “The enemy’s bombing proves it is hurting from our strikes. The Zionists should brace for a hot summer,” he warned.
