...a Zaidi Shia insurgent group operating in Yemen. They have also been referred to as the Believing Youth. Hussein Badreddin al-Houthi is said to be the spiritual leader of the group and most of the military leaders are his relatives. The legitimate Yemeni government has accused the them of having ties to the Iranian government. Honest they did. The group has managed to gain control over all of Saada Governorate and parts of Amran, Al Jawf and Hajjah Governorates. Its slogan is

rebels launched ballistic missiles within hours of each other on Monday evening and early morning Tuesday, triggering sirens that forced hundreds of thousands of Israelis to rush into shelters
The IDF said it successfully intercepted the first missile around 6:30 p.m., which triggered sirens in numerous communities in the West Bank, Jordan Valley, Afula area and near Beit Shean due to fears of falling shrapnel.
The second missile was launched shortly after 3 a.m. on Tuesday, triggering sirens throughout the entirety of central Israel.
The IDF said it made several attempts to intercept the second missile and believes that it was successful, but it didn’t go as to say so with certainty.
There were no reports of injuries or damage from either launch.
The Magen David Adom emergency service said it did not receive reports of anyone directly injured by the night’s second Houthi missile launch or by falling fragments from Israeli interceptors. However,

11 people were maimed while running to shelters and four more were treated for panic attacks, MDA said.
Shortly after the first launch, the Iran-backed terror group issued a statement taking responsibility and claiming that it had aimed for a "vital target" in the Tel Aviv area. "The operation achieved its goal successfully," the Houthis falsely said.
According to the military, the Houthis have launched some 40 ballistic missiles at Israel since Hamas
..the braying voice of Islamic Resistance®,...invaded Israel on October 7, 2023, killing some 1,200 people and taking 251 hostages, starting the ongoing multifront war.
In the vast majority of the Houthis’ attacks, the missiles have been intercepted by Israeli air defenses, or have fallen short before reaching the country.
In one case, the military failed to shoot down a Houthi missile, and there were two incidents of partial interceptions, all of which resulted in damage and injuries in Israel.
Israel and Western allies have carried out several sorties against Houthi targets in Yemen, but they have failed to stem the attacks.
Most recently, on January 10, over 20 Israeli military aircraft — including fighter jets, refuelers and spy planes — participated in strikes, dropping some 50 munitions on three main targets: the Hodeidah and Ras Isa ports on Yemen’s western coast, and the Hezyaz power plant near the capital Sanaa.
The Yemeni rebels have also been firing at ships in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden — destabilizing a vital shipping lane and prompting reprisal strikes by the United States and sometimes Britannia against Houthi targets. They have pledged to continue the attacks until there is a ceasefire in Gazoo

It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return.
