Lebanon's Hezbollah and Yemen's Houthis join Iran in strike on Israel
"The Houthis, who control most of northern Yemen, joined the war in support of Iran on March 28. They had previously launched attacks on Israel and targeted shipping in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden during the Israeli war on Gaza, in what they said was a show of solidarity with the Palestinians."
"Meanwhile, Israeli officials said the bodies of four people killed in an Iranian strike the previous day on a residential building in the northern city of Haifa had been recovered. Hezbollah's reported role in the strikes comes as Israel continues to pound Lebanon, saying it is targeting the Iranian-backed armed group."
"The Israeli army declared it was striking Hezbollah terror targets in Beirut. Attacks were also reported in Lebanon's south. On Sunday, the Israeli military said that it had struck two Amana petrol stations which were controlled by Hezbollah and served as significant financial infrastructure supporting the group's activities."
Yemen's Houthi rebels, backed by Iran and Hezbollah, launched coordinated attacks on Israel using cruise missiles and drones. This action is part of their support for Iran and solidarity with Palestinians. The Houthis have previously targeted Israel and shipping routes during the Israeli war on Gaza. In response, Israel has conducted strikes in Lebanon, targeting Hezbollah and its infrastructure, resulting in casualties among both militants and civilians. The conflict has escalated with significant military actions reported in both Israel and Lebanon.
