Mossad Chief David Barnea Recommends Israel Strike Iran Directly Over Houthi Attacks
Dec 22, 2024, 06:25 PM
Mossad chief David (Dedi) Barnea has recommended that Israel launch a direct strike on Iran in response to recent attacks by the Houthi militia, rather than targeting the Houthis themselves. This recommendation was made during high-level discussions within Israel's political and security leadership, as reported by various news outlets including The Jerusalem Post, Ynet, and Channel 13 News. Barnea emphasized the need to target the 'head' of the issue, stating that striking only the Houthis would not be sufficient. His remarks reflect a growing sentiment among Israeli officials that Iran, seen as the primary orchestrator of regional threats, should be directly confronted for its actions, particularly in light of the Tehran-backed rebels' ballistic missile and drone attacks.
