A separate Israeli strike targeted oil reserves at the port of Ras Isa in the northwestern part of Yemen, just south of the border with Saudi Arabia. According to the Jerusalem Post, a spokesman for the Houthis, Mohammad Abdul Salam confirmed the missile attacks and condemned both Israel and America.

Israel intercepted a missile fired by Hezbollah near Tel Aviv on Wednesday, an unprecedented attack by the militant group that reached deep into the country’s commercial heartlands and marked a new escalatory step in the conflict between the two sides.
