In addition, it has reported that one of the missiles and seven of the neutralized drones came from Yemeni territory, where the Houthis, supported by Iran, continue their actions both through the launch of air attacks against Israeli territory and against ships that they consider related to Israel, the United States or the United Kingdom in the Red Sea.
