According to the Israeli newspaper *Yedioth Ahronoth*, Israeli security services have discovered that the Houthi group in Yemen has made significant advances in its capabilities in recent months

The Iran-backed group is now capable of manufacturing drones and long-range missiles within Yemen itself, with the help of Iranian experts and local engineers.

These weapons are produced and stored in underground facilities.

In addition, Israel is monitoring Houthi attempts to train fighters to carry out a major attack, similar to the one that occurred on October 7th.

This plan would include a large-scale invasion of Israel from neighboring countries.

Israeli intelligence services are monitoring the recruitment and training of Houthi militias, including a course called “Tufan al-Aqsa” (Flooding of Al-Aqsa), which trains thousands of fighters to invade Israel, with the aim of reaching Jerusalem and carrying out mass attacks.

Although the training took place in Yemen, it is believed that a possible attack would be launched from Jordan, with efforts to conceal the attackers’ origin.

On Thursday, Israeli Air Force aircraft, guided by intelligence, bombed Houthi targets in the Sanaa region, the capital of Yemen.

The Houthi military command headquarters, security and intelligence facilities, the military propaganda sector, and camps housing the group’s weapons and fighters were hit.

The Israeli military reported that the strikes were a response to repeated Houthi attacks against Israel, including the launch of drones and missiles into Israeli territory.

According to the military, Houthi security and intelligence facilities participate in terrorist activities, targeting military action against Israel and destabilizing the Middle East.

The group also represses opponents of the regime with political arrests and torture.

The military camps targeted are used to store weapons and plan attacks against Israel.

The Houthis, who receive support and funding from Iran, also attack global shipping lanes, disrupting international trade.

This was Israel’s 15th strike on targets in Yemen.

About 20 aircraft dropped more than 65 bombs, the largest number used in a single operation, against seven targets located 2,200 km from Israel.

Among the targets were five occupied command centers and two weapons depots.
