Yemen's Houthi rebels have launched retaliatory bombings against five targets in Israel! On July 21, 2025, local time, Lieutenant General Yahya Salih, a spokesperson for the Yemeni Houthi forces, issued a new statement, announcing that the Yemeni Houthi forces had launched five suicide drones targeting Israel's capital, Tel Aviv, Ben Gurion Airport, Eilat Port, Ramon Air Base in the Jaffa area (the base of Israeli F-35I fighter jets), and Ashdod city, carrying out equal retaliation against Israel. Lieutenant General Yahya Salih stated: "This is a response to the genocide committed by the enemy in Gaza, as well as a response to Israel's recent aggression against the port of Hodaida," "The Yemeni Houthi air force launched five suicide drones, and the strike operation successfully achieved its objectives." Lieutenant General Yahya Salih said that the Yemeni Houthi forces will continue to strike Israel and provide continued military and material support to the Palestinian people until the Israeli Defense Forces lift the military blockade on the Gaza Strip, otherwise the Yemeni Houthi strikes will not stop."
The Yemeni Houthi forces announced: "We salute all fighters on Palestinian land, may you be safe, the knights of Al-Aqsa flood, and the heroes of eternal epics. We have heard your words, read your letters, and we are embarrassed by your praise, which is deserved," "When you face betrayal and bullets from all directions, may you be safe, fearlessly despising dreams and death," "You are victors, defeating the Arab-Israeli-American alliance with your unwavering will."
The Yemeni Houthi forces have indeed struck hard! The retaliation was quick. The reason why Israel provoked the Yemeni Houthi forces was also on the 21st: At noon on the 21st, the Israeli army launched a new air strike on the port of Hodaida on the western coast of Yemen. According to reports, this was a drone attack carried out by the Israeli navy, with ships equipped with suicide drones and loitering munitions, completing the bombing of the Yemeni Houthi forces. After the attack, the Israeli navy vessels fled, and the Yemeni Houthi navy forces were unable to respond quickly and could not launch anti-ship missiles in time.
Yemen is such a small country, but with this performance, after the formation of the new world order, the Yemeni Houthi forces will surely have a place in the Middle East! Bombing airports, F-35I bases, and ports is correct, which restricts Israel's economy. The strike actions of the Yemeni Houthi forces show that any country, especially small countries, wants to become a piece, then a player, and finally a master, must fight for it. Without fighting, they will always be at others' mercy. The Yemeni Houthi forces dare to attack even the U.S. Navy aircraft carriers, and the result is that the United States has no choice but to sign a non-aggression treaty with them. The barefoot ones don't fear the shoe-wearing ones; the Yemeni Houthi forces are more courageous than Iran! The Yemeni Houthi forces have fought well, being far away from Israel, and being a local armed faction, they have few high-value assets and do not fear retaliation. They can occasionally strike, causing headaches for the Israeli Defense Forces. Although the Yemeni Houthi forces are weak, they dare to draw their sword and fight, and are worthy of being called the "flathead" in the Middle East! The current strikes by the Yemeni Houthi forces mean that Israel cannot escape unscathed.
