The Yemeni group has launched missiles towards Israel in support of Iran.
They have threatened to join the war ever since it started a month ago.
Now, Yemen’s Ansar Allah, also known as the Houthis, have followed up on their threat and launched missiles towards Israel.
This move marks a significant escalation in the US-Israel war on Iran.
There are fears that the Iran-aligned group could attack shipping in the Red Sea, as it has done before.
This would further disrupt global trade, already affected by Iran’s blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.
Will Israel and the US retaliate? And if so, how?
