The Houthi terror group is rebuilding its ranks and smuggling in weapons and missiles amid the Gaza ceasefire, senior Israeli officials warned this week, adding that Jerusalem will not permit a renewed Houthi threat from Yemen.
After suffering major losses during the war—including the deaths of top security leaders in Israeli air and sea operations—the Houthis are working to replace their leadership and stockpile advanced armaments, according to Israeli intelligence assessments.
“We will not allow the Houthis to regain strength, we will act with a strong hand against any such attempt,” a senior Israeli official told Israel’s Channel 12 News on Monday.
