Israeli forces deployed 20 fighter jets to attack 60 targets in Sanaa on Thursday, targeting Houthi military leaders, command headquarters, and weapons depots, Israel's Channel 14 reported. 

Israeli Army Radio reported that Israeli forces used more than 65 shells, the largest number of munitions ever used in an air strike on Yemen.

Israeli Defence Minister Yisrael Katz said that warplanes attacked camps, including the Houthi General Command camp, and killed dozens of the group's members.

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is wanted by the International Criminal Court, ordered the attack on Sanaa from his plane en route to New York, the Israeli Prime Minister's Office stated. 

Media in Sanaa reported that more than 10 Israeli air strikes struck Sanaa in today's attack. 

At least 20 people were wounded on Wednesday by the Houthis' drone attack on Eilat. Israeli ambulance services said two people were seriously injured while others sustained medium to light injuries.
