The Jerusalem Post:
Iran’s project to arm its partners throughout the region with precision missiles has expanded beyond Syria to include Lebanon, Iraq and Yemen. If Israel’s aerial and intelligence superiority over Syrian territory allowed it to disrupt shipment and production there, the newer participants in the precision project present more formidable challenges. Yemen has long been on the margins of Israeli national security discourse, but Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s discussion of the country with a high-level US delegation in late October may reflect the country’s new position of higher priority. Beyond the threat Netanyahu mentioned of long-range and high-accuracy missiles launched from Houthi-controlled territory and landing in Israel, officials ought to monitor a variety of other challenges that Yemen could present for Israeli national security.
