โจThe newspapers extensively report on Israel's military operation "Golden Jewelry" against Houthi targets in Yemen. The Israeli Air Force struck Sanaa International Airport, destroying what officials describe as "the last aircraft remaining in Houthi use" (13tv, Davar, INN, Jerusalem Post, Kan, Maariv, Mako, now14, Srugim, Times, Ynet, Kipa, Walla). Defense Minister Israel Katz stated that "whoever fires at Israel will pay a heavy price" and declared the Houthis are now under "naval and air blockade" (13tv, Davar, INN, Mako, Srugim, Walla). The strikes follow a week of continued Houthi missile launches toward Israel (13tv, Ynet). Meanwhile, protests marking 600 days since the October 7 attacks are being held across Israel demanding the return of remaining hostages (Haaretz, Times).
