The Israeli military has issued an urgent warning to all individuals near Sanaa International Airport, urging them to evacuate immediately. The warning was posted on the military's official X account, accompanied by a map highlighting the affected area. The statement emphasized that remaining in the vicinity could pose a serious risk.

This development follows heightened tensions between Israel and Yemen’s Houthi forces, who have been launching attacks in response to Israel’s military operations in Gaza. The warning comes just a day after Israel carried out airstrikes on Hodeidah Port, resulting in four deaths and 39 injuries, according to Houthi sources.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed retaliation after a Houthi missile landed near Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv, prompting several European and U.S. airlines to suspend flights to Israel. The Houthis have been targeting Israeli territory and Red Sea shipping lanes since the beginning of the war in Gaza, citing their actions as a show of solidarity with the Palestinians.

The situation remains tense, with speculation that Israel may launch further strikes in the coming hours.
