‘21-Mile Runway’: New Airstrip ‘Appears’ In Yemen Island, ‘Built By US Ally UAE’ Amid Houthi Attacks

On January 17, Yemen’s Houthi rebels claimed responsibility for rocket and drone attacks on Israeli cities and the US aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman in the Red Sea. The Houthis, expressing solidarity with Palestinians, vowed to continue operations against Israel and its allies. The group also targeted key shipping routes in the region. In related news, a secret airstrip near Socotra Island, suspected to be built by the UAE, is nearing completion, potentially for military operations related to anti-Houthi efforts. n18oc_crux
