Israel's Defense Minister Israel Katz vowed that Israel would strike Houthi leaders after another Yemeni missile targeted the Tel Aviv area on Dec. 24, the Times of Israel reported the same day. "Just as we took care of Sinwar in Gaza, Haniyeh in Tehran and Nasrallah in Beirut, we will deal with the heads of the Houthis in Sanaa or anywhere else in Yemen," Katz said. The comments came just three days after a Houthi missile managed to evade Israeli air defenses and hit Tel Aviv, wounding dozens.
