Yemen Civil War News and Discussion.. an evolving situation

Also a warning to Houthi government that Yemen's economic infrastructure is on the line due to its anti-shipping campaign. Might also be an attempt to create unrest there. It also won't surprise me that IDF is collecting information about Houthi government and leadership structure.
Very interesting differences in US and Israel targets in Yemen

USA targets military infrastructure in mostly pre-emptive strikes (i.e., they detect drones being prepared for launch and destroy them on the ground)

Israel targets civilian infrastructure like power plants and oil storage sites (and they openly admit this too) to create big fires and punish the civilian population

One of the reasons for the US to be reluctant to strike at Houthi in a big way is that Houthi oppose Al-Qaeda Network of the region. The US does want this network to regroup unless there is another setup that can take care of it.
 
Does Yemen not have SAM defences that can protect important economic sites?

The former achieved nothing. Israel's strikes are much more meaningful. The west doesn't win wars any more because of these stupid tactics of bombing empty warehouses or a few drones.

Looks like they stayed over the red sea from what the video shows but there maybe a chance they over flew Tiran/Sanafir islands ?

The US military said Friday that it carried out strikes on 15 targets belonging to the Houthi rebels in Yemen.

The attack, which included strikes targeting the group’s military capabilities, was carried out to “protect freedom of navigation” in the Red Sea following weeks of Houthi attacks on ships bound for Israel, the US said.

The Iran-backed Houthis accused the US and UK of carrying out airstrikes in four cities across Yemen on Friday. Seven of those strikes targeted the Hodeidah Airport and the Katheeb area in Hodeidah, the Houthi-run Al-Masirah TV reported.

The British defense ministry said the UK was not involved in strikes on Yemen today, and Israel’s military said it isn’t aware of the strikes.
