Yemen's main airport reopens after at least 3 people were killed in Israeli strikes

Flights were scheduled to resume again on Friday at Sanaa international airport, officials said, a day after the airport was hit by Israeli strikes.

A new round of Israeli airstrikes in Yemen on Thursday targeted the Houthi rebel-held capital and multiple ports.

At least three people were reported killed and dozens injured in the airport strike.

"Today, Friday, we resume our flights at Sanaa airport on time," Yahya al-Sayani, Houthi deputy minister of transport, said during a press conference.

The Israeli strikes followed several days of Houthi launches setting off sirens in Israel.

The Israeli military in a statement said it attacked infrastructure used by the Iran-backed Houthis at the international airport in Sanaa and ports in Hodeida, Al-Salif and Ras Qantib, along with power stations,asserting they were used to smuggle in Iranian weapons and for the entry of senior Iranian officials.

Israel's military added it had "capabilities to strike very far from Israel’s territory — precisely, powerfully, and repetitively.”

The strikes came a day after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said “the Houthis, too, will learn what Hamas and Hezbollah and Assad’s regime and others learned" as his military has battled those more powerful proxies of Iran.

The Houthi-controlled satellite channel al-Masirah reported multiple deaths and showed broken windows, collapsed ceilings and a bloodstained floor and vehicle.

Iran's foreign ministry condemned the strikes.
