欧美文化:Yemen's Houthis claim new drone attacks toward Israel

SANAA, Nov. 2 (Xinhua) -- Yemen's Houthi militia has launched new drone attacks against Israel, hitting several targets deep inside the Jewish state, according to the militia's military spokesman.

"We will continue our military operations against Israel until it stops its aggression on Gaza," Yahya Sarea said in a statement broadcast by Houthi-run al-Masirah TV on Wednesday evening.

The statement did not specify what targets were hit, or provide any evidence of the attacks. Israel has not confirmed or denied any new Houthi strikes on its territory.

The Houthis, who control much of northern Yemen, said the operation was their fourth against Israel since the conflict between Israel and the Hamas militant group in the Gaza Strip began on Oct. 7.

The rebels also claimed that they launched drone and missile attacks on Israeli targets on Tuesday.

The Houthi escalation against Israel comes amid fears of a wider regional conflict in the Middle East.
