Report: Yemen strikes went ahead without security cabinet consultation

The Kan public broadcaster reports that yesterday’s early morning strikes on Houthi-linked targets in Yemen were only approved by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Israel Katz, without the approval of the security cabinet.

Citing unnamed sources, the report says security cabinet ministers only received a general update on the developments that didn’t include the targets hit or the rationale behind the strikes.
