Houthis' Warning: Israel and US on Alert as Gaza Truce Nears End

The Houthi rebels in Yemen, supported by Iran, have declared war on Israel, launching drones and missiles towards the country. However, their attacks have been largely unsuccessful due to the long distance and the presence of US and Israeli naval defenses. The Houthi's actions are seen as an attempt to divert attention from domestic criticism and to support Hamas in its conflict with Israel. The recent seizure of a cargo ship connected to an Israeli businessman by the Houthis further escalates tensions. This is part of Iran's broader strategy to disrupt the political atmosphere in the Middle East and hinder any potential normalization between Saudi Arabia and Israel.
