Western intelligence sources told i24NEWS that the Houthi movement in Yemen is conducting tests aimed at improving its missile capabilities. The disclosure, reported Monday morning by the outlet, follows weeks of increased Houthi launch activity targeting Israel and international shipping in the Red Sea. The sources did not specify the type of missiles being tested, the location of the tests, or whether they are linked to recent launches. The development comes as Israel and allied forces have been tracking Houthi capabilities closely, with a significant portion of the group's arsenal being supplied by Iran. As The Zioneer has reported, the Houthis have claimed joint retaliation planning with Iran's IRGC and have boasted of 'big military surprises' in the pipeline. Whether the current tests are part of that effort remains unconfirmed.
