Jerusalem, 24 August, 2025 (TPS-IL) — Israel’s Defense Minister Israel Katz on Sunday declared, “For every missile they launch at Israel, the Houthis [in Yemen] will pay with compound interest.”
Katz’s words came after the Israel Air Force on Sunday struck Houthi terror regime targets in Yemen, including a military compound housing the presidential palace, the Asar and Hizaz power stations, and a fuel storage facility, in response to repeated Houthi attacks against Israel.
“Today we brought a plague of darkness on the Houthis,” he added, “and later – there will also be the Plague of the Firstborn.”
