Israeli airstrikes in Sanaa, the Houthi-controlled capital of Yemen, have resulted in nine deaths and over 118 injuries, according to reports from Houthi-affiliated media. The strikes occurred late Tuesday, intensifying the already volatile situation in the region.

The airstrikes targeted multiple locations within the city, causing significant damage to residential areas and prompting fears of further escalation. Eyewitness accounts describe scenes of chaos as emergency services rushed to assist the injured and recover those trapped under rubble.

This incident marks a significant increase in hostilities between Israel and Houthi forces, which have been engaged in a broader regional conflict. The Houthi movement has been involved in the Yemeni civil war since 2014, receiving support from Iran, while Israel has expressed concerns about Iranian influence in the region.

International observers are closely monitoring the situation, as the strikes may provoke a response from Houthi leaders. The recent developments in Yemen echo other global tensions, including the ongoing conflicts involving Russia and NATO, as seen in recent developments in Poland.
