Israeli strikes on Yemen’s capital kill six, wound dozens

Israeli warplanes carried out a series of air strikes on Yemen’s capital Sanaa on Sunday, hitting government and military sites, according to Houthi-run al-Masirah television. A Houthi health official said six people were killed and 86 injured. Residents reported strikes on the presidential palace, the Capital Secretariat, the state oil company building, fuel depots, and power stations across the city.

Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz confirmed the attacks but did not provide details. Army Radio reported that the raids targeted power stations, the presidential compound, and an oil warehouse. The strikes came two days after Yemen’s Houthi movement fired a hypersonic ballistic missile at Tel Aviv, which damaged homes but caused no deaths. The Houthis, who control much of northern Yemen including Sanaa and Hodeidah, have launched repeated attacks on Israel since November 2023 in support of Palestinians in Gaza, prompting Israeli retaliatory strikes.
