Israeli airstrikes have hit Yemen’s capital, days after the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels fired what the Israeli military described as the first cluster bomb they've launched since 2023.

Israel has carried out air strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen's capital, Sanaa, in response to the group's missile attack on Friday which the Israel military said carried cluster munitions. The Israeli operation targeted a military complex housing the presidential palace, a fuel depot and power stations.

Israeli strikes in Yemen’s capital Sanaa killed at least six people, according to the country’s Iran-backed Houthi rebels, who have repeatedly launched missiles and drones at Israel throughout the Gaza war.
