Netanyahu, After Major Strikes on Houthis: ‘We Will Get the Job Done’

Israeli Prime Minsiter Benjamin Netanyahu spoke Thursday, after the Israeli Air Force (IAF) struck multiple targets across Yemen, the fourth Israeli counterattack against Iranian-backed Houthi rebels and the most ambitious thus far.

As Breitbart News reported earlier Thursday, Israel hit Yemen’s international airport in the capital city of Sana’a, and port facilities in Hodeida, after several days in which the Houthis fired ballistic missiles and drones at Israeli cities.

The airstrikes came as Houthi leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi was giving a televised speech, adding insult to injury.

The purpose of the attacks — especially on the airport — appears to have been to cripple the regime and to prevent it from receiving reinforcements from Iran. Yemen is one of the poorest countries in the world, and does not have the money or the skills base to build and operate ballistic missiles or drones; it is entirely dependent on Iranian support.
