The Houthi group in Yemen, which is aligned with Iran, declared on Sunday that they coordinated an attack on Israel alongside Iran. This is the first public declaration of such collaboration between an Iran-supported group and Tehran itself regarding attacks.

According to military spokesperson Yehya Sarea, the Yemeni group launched several ballistic missiles aimed at central Israel’s Jaffa within the past 24 hours, as conveyed during a televised statement.

He stated, “This action was done in support of the oppressed Palestinian and Iranian people… It was carried out in conjunction with the operations undertaken by the Iranian military against the hostile Israeli forces,” he mentioned further.

The Israeli military earlier said sirens were activated in several areas in the country following missile launches from Iran and Yemen.

Israel and Iran continued to exchange missile attacks since Israel launched its biggest-ever military strike against its longstanding enemy on Friday.

On the same day Israel launched its attack on Iran, Israel said a missile that was launched from Yemen towards Israel fell in Hebron in the occupied West Bank.

The Yemeni group however did not claim responsibility for the missile launch.

The Houthis have been launching attacks against Israel, most of which have been intercepted, in what they say is support for Palestinians in Gaza during the Israel-Hamas war there since Hamas’s October 7 2023 attack on Israel.

Israel has carried out a series of retaliatory strikes.

The US also launched intensified strikes against the Houthis this year, before President Donald Trump halted the offensive after the Houthis agreed to stop attacks on American ships.
