An Iranian aircraft en route to Sanaa was diverted to Hodeidah airport after the runway at Sanaa International Airport was struck, according to a report. Footage shows Houthi passengers on the aircraft chanting 'Death to America, Death to Israel, Victory to Islam' as they landed.
An Iranian aircraft that was reported earlier to have landed at Sanaa International Airport under fighter jet attack was actually forced to divert to Hodeidah airport, according to new footage. The footage, published by Ynet, shows Houthi passengers on the aircraft chanting 'Death to America, Death to Israel, Victory to Islam' as they landed. The earlier report, which The Zioneer covered at 17:29, stated that the aircraft landed at Sanaa while fighter jets struck the runways. The new details indicate the runway strike forced the aircraft to change course to Hodeidah. The footage provides a glimpse of the Houthi delegation's rhetoric as they arrived in Yemen.
