Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz has issued a warning to Yemen’s Houthi rebels and Iran, which supports them, saying Israel is ready to defend itself against any threat
The warning came after the Houthis said a ceasefire deal with the United States would not prevent them from continuing to attack Israel.
“If the Houthis continue to fire at us, they will face severe consequences from Israel.
Our armed forces are prepared for any mission,” Katz said.
He also sent a message to the Iranian government, which funds and arms the Houthis: “The time for using proxy groups is over, and the alliance of evil has collapsed.
You are directly responsible.
What we did to Hezbollah in Beirut, Hamas in Gaza, Assad in Damascus and the Houthis in Yemen, we will do to you in Tehran.”
Katz stressed: “We will not allow anyone to threaten Israel.”
US ceasefire with Houthis surprises Israel
US President Donald Trump’s announcement that his administration has reached a ceasefire agreement with the Houthis has surprised Israel, an Israeli official told The Times of Israel.
“Some are worried about possible unexpected decisions.
Others say it is better to wait and see what happens,” the official said.
