Report: Houthi missile potentially aimed at Israel lands in Egypt
Arutz Sheva ^ | 16/3/25

A missile launched from Yemen has landed in Egypt about 200 kilometers from Eilat, Doron Kadosh reported on Galai Tzahal (IDF Radio) this morning (Sunday).

Israel is investigating the possibility that the missile was aimed at Israeli territory, but at this stage, they cannot confirm that with certainty.

The missile fell in the Sharm el-Sheikh area.

The report comes after the US on Saturday evening launched several strikes that targeted Houthi defense capabilities, as well as missile and drone systems.

The strikes continued overnight, as the US military attacked dozens of times in Sanaa, Saada, and Marib.

Houthi are like honey badgers in many ways. One of which is they don’t care. They like to shoot off missiles and they don’t care if one lands in Egypt.

Another article recently posted here said Trump plans to annihilate the Houthi. Good luck with that. They seem to be indestructible. We’d have to turn Yemen into a glass parking lot.

They’ve survived Operation Scorched Earth, Operation Blow to the Head, Operation Decisive Storm and more, and now Operation Prosperity Guardian:

See? Honey badgers.

The Houthis can be destroyed. Cut off the hand that feeds them (Iran) and they will dry out and shrivel up in the hot sands of Yemen.
Iran must be hit and hit so hard that the Houthis have nothing left to do than hang around their goat herds for pleasure all day long.

There is an MFO camp outside Sharm el Shiek with a Battalion of US Infantry and support personnel. I was there 85/86.

Not so easy to aim straight when the firing range is two-way, huh Abdul?

I really would like to see Houthis getting vaporized from space by some secret US laser.

Aha. Good catch. Thanks. It would seem that was the likely target then, not Israel.

From the article (which, in good FR tradition, I did not read before commenting earlier):

“The missile fell in the Sharm el-Sheikh area.

The report comes after the US on Saturday evening launched several strikes that targeted Houthi defense capabilities, as well as missile and drone systems.”

But I still say the Houthis are like honey badgers.

Lol! Houthis vs the Blowfish! Good one.

I got a chuckle out of Operation Blow to the Head. The Arabs have much fiercer names for their Ops like “Op Scorched Earth”. They make our Op Prosperity Guardian sound so lame.

mudslime aim.

We are lucky in our opponents.

In my reckoning of following Israeli news closely since Oct7 2023, mudslime missiles from hamass, hellbollah and the whotheys have murdered more mudslimes than Jews.

Via Tsarfati 30 minutes ago:

Yemeni Armed Forces: In response to the US aggression against our country, we carried out a qualitative military operation targeting the US aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman and its affiliated vessels in the northern Red Sea, with 18 ballistic and cruise missiles and a drone.
