The IDF says Israeli Air Force fighter jets dropped 50 munitions during the strikes today on the Houthi-controlled Sanaa International Airport and other targets near Yemen’s capital.
Dozens of IAF aircraft were involved in the strikes, including fighter jets, refueling planes, and spy planes.
According to the IDF, the fighter jets “disabled” the airport within 15 minutes.
The strikes also hit several power stations near Sanaa and a cement factory north of the capital, which the military says were used by the Houthis.
