Statement made on Twitter by Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister, Israel
From the beginning of the war, I made it clear that Israel will act against all attackers, which is why we struck Houthi targets in Yemen yesterday in response to the deadly drone attack near the US Consulate in Tel Aviv.
The targeted port is used for smuggling weapons from Iran to the Houthis, who have attacked Israel and other nations.
The international community must support Israel’s actions to defend against this Iranian terror axis and ensure the aggressors pay a heavy price.
