Israel has bombed Yemen's Hodeidah port, a day after the Iran-aligned Houthis fired a missile that struck near Tel Aviv's main airport. Visuals showed a huge ball of fire at the port and a cloud of smoke billowing into the sky.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday vowed to retaliate for the attack by the Houthis near Ben Gurion Airport, who have been firing at Israel and at shipping in the Red Sea in what they say is solidarity with the Palestinians.

Most attacks from Yemen have been intercepted by Israel's missile defence systems, though a drone strike hit Tel Aviv last year. Sunday's missile was the first known to have escaped being intercepted of a series of missiles fired since March.

Late on Sunday, Houthi rebels said they would impose a "comprehensive" aerial blockade on Israel by repeatedly targeting its airports, in response to Israel expanding its operations in Gaza.

The Houthis' Humanitarian Operations Coordination Center, a body set up last year to liaise between Houthi forces and commercial shipping operators, issued the warning about targeting Israeli airports, saying Ben Gurion Airport would be the top target.

The statement attached an email it said was sent to the International Air Transport Association, the global airlines body, and the United Nations' International Civil Aviation Organisation.

Houthi forces called "upon all international airlines to take this announcement into serious consideration ... and to cancel all their flights to the airports of the criminal Israeli enemy, in order to safeguard the safety of their aircraft and passengers," the email said.

US has bombed 1000 times and add to that of PM Netanyahu, you have more than a 1000 strikes on the Houthis yet nothing.

Does Israel have the military ability to defeat the Houthis? HELL NO!

As he alluded in the interview, despite the more advantages that Saudi Arabia had using same US-made weapons for 7 years and close to the Houthis, Saudi Arabia failed. The Houthis are the Sparta of Middle East. They will lead the Arabs to chase out the state of Israel out of the middle East if diplomacy fails in ending the Gaza genocide.
