The Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen struck a blow to the heart of Israel with an attack they carried out a few days ago. Following the attack, which caused great panic in the region, threats from Israel towards Yemen continue. IS YEMEN THE NEW TARGET?While Western media reports suggest that Israel's new target will be Yemen, Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz has threatened to kill the leaders of the Houthis in Yemen, stating, "Tehran, we will do the same in Hudaydah and Sana'a as we did to Haniyeh, Sinwar, and Nasrallah in Gaza and Lebanon." "WE WILL DELIVER A SEVERE BLOW"According to a report by Haaretz, Defense Minister Katz announced that they would deliver a "severe blow" to the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen. Katz stated that they would target the Houthis' strategic infrastructure and leaders, saying, "Tehran, we will do the same in Hudaydah and Sana'a as we did to Haniyeh, Sinwar, and Nasrallah in Gaza and Lebanon." Katz, who said, "We defeated Hamas, we defeated Hezbollah, we blinded the defense systems in Iran, and we damaged the (missile) production systems," stated that they would attack the Houthis "harshly." OPEN THREATS TO THE HOUTHISKatz threatened the Houthis with the words, "Anyone who raises their hand against Israel will have their hand cut off, and the long arm of the Israeli army will strike them and settle an unprecedented account." PRESSURE TO "RECOGNIZE AS A TERRORIST ORGANIZATION"Today, Israel issued a striking directive that reinforced claims that the new target of the Tel Aviv administration would be Yemen. The Foreign Minister instructed diplomatic missions in Europe to pressure for the Houthis to be recognized as a terrorist organization.
