[Regnum] The Ansar Allah (Houthis) movement struck a target in the city of Eilat in southern Israel. This was reported on his page on the X social network (formerly Twitter) by the movement's military spokesman Yahya Saria.

“The Air Force <…> carried out a military operation against a key Israeli enemy target in the Umm al-Rashrash area (the Arabic name for Eilat. – Ed.) in the south of occupied Palestine using drones,” he wrote on November 16.
Once again confusing wish and fulfillment. Inshallah.
Saria stressed that such strikes will continue until Israel abandons its aggressive policies in Gaza and Lebanon.

On November 12, Saria announced a successful attack on the US aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln in the Arabian Sea. According to Yemeni media, the operation lasted eight hours. In addition to the aircraft carrier, the Houthis attacked two US destroyers in the Red Sea.
Attacked, yes. Beyond that, nothing.
On October 28, Ansar Allah reported attacks on three commercial vessels using missiles and drones. It was noted that in the southern Arabian Sea, the SC Montreal was attacked by two drones, the bulk carrier Motaro was attacked with ballistic missiles in the Red Sea, and a cruise missile was fired at the Maersk Kowloon in the Arabian Sea.

On October 22, the Houthis announced their first strike using a hypersonic missile against an Israeli military base in Tel Aviv.

Following the escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Yemen's Houthis have warned that they will shell Israeli territory and prevent ships linked to the Jewish state from passing through the Red Sea and the Bab al-Mandeb Strait. Since October 7, 2023, they have attacked more than 190 ships linked to Israel, the United States and the United Kingdom.

Houthis claim to launch several drones at Israel, IDF unaware

[IsraelTimes] The Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen claimed to have launched several drones at Israel today.

In a statement, the terror group says it targeted “military and vital targets” in the Tel Aviv and Ashkelon area with several drones.

This morning, the IDF said it downed a drone launched at Israel “from the east” — thought to be from Iraq — near Rehovot, south of Tel Aviv.

The military is unaware of any drones launched from Yemen that reached Israel today.
