Yemen’s Houthi group has vowed a “hot summer” for Israel after a missile strike on Sanaa’s airport destroyed a civilian plane and disrupted operations.

The Yemeni Houthi group has warned Israel of a “hot summer” following an Israeli missile strike on Sanaa International Airport that destroyed a Yemenia Airways aircraft and disrupted airport operations.

Mahdi al-Mashat, head of the Houthi Supreme Political Council, said Israel’s actions would only intensify their response, vowing continued support for Gaza until Israel ends its offensive and lifts the blockade.

Since Israel resumed its military campaign in Gaza in March, the Houthis have escalated missile and drone attacks on Israeli targets. They claim to have carried out 22 operations since the start of May, describing it as “the most painful month” for Tel Aviv.

The strike on Sanaa marked the 10th Israeli attack on Yemen since the Gaza war began.
