Israel had earlier warned people to leave the area around Sanaa International Airport, one day after Israeli forces carried out airstrikes on Hodeidah port in Yemen in response to a Houthi missile landing near Israel's main air hub on Sunday.
"Not evacuating puts you in danger," the Israeli military said in its warning, and it published a map of the area surrounding the airport.
Three airport sources told Rooters that Tuesday's strikes targeted three civilian aeroplanes, the departures hall, the airport runway and a military air base under Houthi control.

The Houthis said on Sunday they would impose a "comprehensive" aerial blockade on Israel by repeatedly targeting its airports.

It reported that two non-combatants were killed and seven others injured in an attack on the central Dhahban power station in Bani al-Harith District. Additionally, two civilians were maimed in American-Israeli airstrikes on the Asr area in Moeen District.
The statement added that one person was killed and three others injured in airstrikes on Sana'a International Airport. It also noted that seven civilians were maimed in the bombing of the Haziz Central Power Station in Sana'a.
The Ministry emphasized that civil defense and ambulance teams are working tirelessly to search for victims and those still trapped under the rubble.
It reiterated its condemnation of the continued American-Israeli attacks on service facilities and civilian infrastructure, describing them as blatant violations of international humanitarian law.
The Ministry further stated that targeting and disabling vital humanitarian entry points, such as ports and airports, constitutes an aggressive act aimed at tightening the blockade, starving the Yemeni population, and worsening the humanitarian crisis for patients, travelers, and those in need of food and medicine.
Latest US-Israeli strikes targeted power plants and cement factories
[HODHODYEMENNEWS.NET] Nasr al-Din Amer, one of the leaders of the Ansarallah movement, revealed on Tuesday that the attacks carried out by the American and Israeli enemies on Yemen

focused primarily on targeting fuel tanks in power plants and cement factories.
Amer explained, in a post on his Telegram account, that the goal of these attacks was to ignite fires and raise smoke plumes to create a contrasting image from the achievements of the Yemeni operation, which included striking the heart of the Israeli entity, disabling its airports, and imposing a complete blockade on civil aviation within it.
He pointed out that most of the targets that were bombed by the Zionist enemy had previously been targeted repeatedly during the past years.
Amer concluded by saying that ''the response is forthcoming and that the sea and air blockade on the Zionist entity will not be lifted until the aggression against Gazoo

Sanaa airport 'completely destroyed' in Israeli strike

's international airport was "completely destroyed" in Israeli air strikes on the rebel-held capital Sanaa on Tuesday, an airport official told AFP.
"Three planes out of seven belonging to Yemenia Airlines were destroyed at Sanaa airport, and Sanaa International Airport was completely destroyed," the official said.

The attack was not only coordinated with the US, but Washington has been attacking the Houthis on a nearly daily basis at almost the same time.
The IDF also struck Attan in south-west Sanaa, Haiz Central Power Station in the Sanhan district south-east of the capital, and Asr Electricity Station in Sanaa’s Ma’een district to the west of the city, according to Al Masirah.
The Houthis’ official news agency, SABA, also said that the IDF struck at least two electricity transformers.
The international airport is located north of the city.
The attacks followed the military’s 2:36 p.m. warning to all Yemeni citizens at the airport to evacuate. The warning is the first time that Israel has shared an alert before attacking the Houthis, after six prior attacks without warning, including on Monday. Defense sources explained that, in this instance, the nature of an international airport, as opposed to Yemen’s Hodeidah Port and other areas that Israel has attacked, demanded a different level of warning.
Targets included the Hodeidah seaport, which the IDF noted serves as a major source of income for the Houthi regime. “The Hodeidah seaport is used to transfer Iranian weapons, equipment for military needs, and other terrorist needs.”
In addition, the military said, “The Bajil concrete factory east of the city of Hodeidah was attacked, which serves as an important economic resource for the Houthi terrorist regime and is used to build tunnels and military infrastructure.”
Earlier on Monday evening, the US coordinated with Israel its own strike against the Houthis in Sanaa.
Israel’s last counterstrike against the Houthis before this week was on January 11, before US President Donald Trump took office. Since then, Israel has hoped that over 1,000 airstrikes by the US under Trump would be sufficient to stop Houthi attacks on Israel without Jerusalem getting directly involved. However, the successful hit near Ben-Gurion Airport shook up that calculation.
| A few more details from the Times of Israel: |
Sanaa International Airport, which had been hit once by the IAF before, was “completely disabled” following strikes within 15 minutes that targeted its runways, aircraft, and infrastructure, the military said. The IDF said that the airport was used by the Houthis “for transferring weapons and operatives, and is regularly operated by the Houthi regime for terror purposes.”
