Attacks

Civilian and residential areas were attacked in Sanaa's al-Tahrir neighbourhood; homes were also hit. A medical facility on 60th Street in the southwest of the city was bombed, as well a government compound in al-Jawf’s capital, al-Hazm, and the headquarters of two newspapers. Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree said that the group used surface-to-air missiles against the Israeli incursion, saying that some Israeli planes were turned back before they were able to discharge their weapons. Israel reported that they also attacked "military camps in which operatives of the Houthis were identified". ^[4] The National Museum of Yemen also sustained damage from the attacks. ^[5]

It was later confirmed that 31 journalists were among the 46 fatalities, after the headquarters of the Al-Yemen and 26 September newspapers were targeted. ^[6] A funeral for the slain journalists was held on 16 September. ^{[7] [8]}
