The IDF publishes footage showing its airstrike on the “Galaxy Leader” vessel overnight, as part of a wave of strikes on Yemen’s Houthis, in response to the group’s attacks on Israel.

Galaxy Leader, which was hijacked by the Houthis in November 2023, was being used by the Iran-backed group for maritime surveillance and operational planning, according to the military.
