New video footage, reportedly from Yemeni sources, shows a Saudi airstrike on Sanaa International Airport. The footage's origin is unverified, and Yemeni sources speculate that the strike may have used British-supplied Storm Shadow missiles.
New footage of the Saudi airstrike on Sanaa International Airport has emerged as of 18:59 Jerusalem, reportedly from Yemeni sources, offering a different angle of the attack. The sources also suggest that the strike may have used British-supplied Storm Shadow missiles, though the footage and the claim remain unverified.
The strike on Sanaa airport was first reported at 14:03 Jerusalem, when the internationally recognized Yemeni government confirmed it had attacked the runway to prevent an Iranian plane from landing, according to Reuters. The Iranian Mahan Air flight diverted to Hodeidah, as reported by multiple sources. By 17:57 Jerusalem, footage released by journalist Hananel Aviv showed multiple missiles hitting simultaneously. The latest footage, from Yemeni sources, adds a new angle and the Storm Shadow speculation.
Houthi-led authorities warned Saudi Arabia of severe consequences at 17:18 Jerusalem, and Iran backed the warning, cautioning against regional war, as The Zioneer reported.
Both the authenticity of the new footage and the specific munition type remain unconfirmed. The Zioneer will continue to follow developments.
