The IDF releases footage of aerial refueling operations amid yesterday’s airstrike against infrastructure in Yemen used by the Iran-backed Houthis.

According to the military, dozens of IAF aircraft, including fighter jets, refuelers, and spy planes, participated in the strikes against the Houthis some 1,800 kilometers from Israel.

The strike was carried out in response to recent Houthi missile attacks on Israel.

The footage shows an IAF Boeing 707 refueling an F-35 fighter jet amid the operation.
