The Israeli Air Force and air defenses are in a state of high alert in anticipation of any potential missile or drone attacks from Yemen.

The air force has raised its state of alert and strengthened its air defense system, including deploying fighter jets to patrol the skies, due to concerns over the launch of drones and ballistic missiles from Yemen, according to the Israeli Kan channel military correspondent on Tuesday.

The military correspondent added that "Despite the state of alert, there are no changes in the Home Front Command's instructions to the public."

This follows Yemeni vows of reinstating military operations against "Israel", after the occupation government enforced a blockade on humanitarian aid entering Gaza.

Yemen vows military action against 'Israel'

Yemen has pledged to take action against "Israel" after it refused to lift the blockade on military aid to Gaza, aiming to pressure the occupation into ending the siege, while a senior Yemeni military source told Al Mayadeen on Tuesday that "Israel" had failed to comply with the agreement and did not lift the siege on Gaza, emphasizing that Yemen's next steps will be determined by this violation.

The source confirmed that the army, along with all its military formations, has finalized its preparations and remains in a state of readiness for orders, adding that Yemen's naval operations are centered on breaking the blockade and securing the delivery of aid to Gaza.

The leader of the Yemeni Ansar Allah movement, Sayyed Abdul-Malik al-Houthi, declared on March 9 that military operations targeting Israeli-linked vessels would resume if humanitarian aid does not reach Gaza within the four-day deadline he had set last week.

Previously, Sayyed Abdul-Malik set a four-day deadline on March 7 for mediators to ensure the entry of humanitarian aid into Gaza, warning that if the Israeli occupation continued to obstruct aid deliveries, naval operations targeting Israeli-linked vessels would resume.

Despite this, "Israel" continued to impose its siege on Gaza, starting with the blocking of humanitarian aid from entering the strip on March 2, and most recently cutting the electricity supply from Gaza, according to the Israeli Energy Minister Eli Cohen.
