After a month of war, the Houthis join the fray

from Kan English · host כאן | Kan

Yemen's pro-Iran Houthis launched a ballistic missile and a cruise missile at southern Israel on Saturday, describing the attack as a response to continued targeting of infrastructure in Iran, Lebanon, Iraq and Palestinian territories. Senior Houthi official Mohammed Mansour said his group is considering closing the Bab al-Mandeb Strait, through which roughly one-eighth of global trade typically passes. Israel said the missiles fired from Yemen were the first since a ceasefire with Hamas in Gaza was declared in October 2025. KAN's Mark Weiss spoke with Dr Nahum Shiloh from Tel Aviv university’s Moshe Dayan Center. (Photo: AP)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
