A week after the attack on the Kiryat Maccabiah Tower in Tel Aviv and Israel's dramatic strike in Yemen, Abd al-Malik al-Houthi, leader of the Houthis organization, announces they are planning a substantial response against Israel in coordination with terrorist organizations operating under Iran. According to assessments, the response will likely involve multi-front firing.
In a statement, al-Houthi said, "The Israeli attack will not deter us from supporting actions in Gaza. The inevitable response. Joint operations with militias will demonstrate a significant development." He further stated, "The response to the attack in Hodaidah will come. We continue in the fifth stage of the attacks on Israel."
Meanwhile, according to Arab media reports, the Houthi response to Israel's attack is delayed as the terrorist organization lacks a clear strategy regarding confrontation with Israel. It is estimated that the Houthis were not prepared for a significant attack on Israel and intend to respond in a way that will provoke astonishment among Israel's enemies.
To achieve this, the Houthis believe that to generate a significant response, they need to launch hundreds of missiles and drones at Israel, preparations that take considerable time and depend on shipments arriving from Iran.
