Since the escalation of the conflict in Gaza in October 2023, the Houthis have continued to threaten Israel with attacks on its territory. At the same time, the movement has blocked passage through the Red Sea and the Bab el-Mandeb Strait for ships associated with Israel.
As reported by the Regnum news agency, on April 18, the US Central Command (CENTCOM) announced the destruction of Yemen's largest oil port, controlled by the Houthis. The American side specified that the operation was carried out to deprive the Yemeni movement of "illegal income" and "economic benefits from appropriating profits from imports."
On April 13, the Yemeni province of Sanaa was subjected to a US air raid. The US Air Force struck a ceramics factory. According to the Ministry of Health in the Houthi-controlled territory, at least five people were killed.

rebels on Friday fired two ballistic missiles at Israel, both of which were intercepted by air defenses, the Israel Defense Forces said.
The first missile triggered sirens at around 5:30 a.m. in Haifa and across northern Israel. The IDF said the missile was shot down by air defenses before crossing Israel’s borders.
Debris from the missile interception penetrated the roof of a kindergarten at Kibbutz Mishmar Ha’emek, causing some damage.
The second missile also set off sirens in Haifa and the north, just after 1:30 p.m. Several hours later, following an "in-depth" inquiry, the IDF said it had confirmed that the second missile was also successfully intercepted.
No injuries were caused in either attack, aside from a 40-year-old woman who was slightly hurt when she fell over while running to a bomb shelter, medics said.
