Russia may step up assistance to Yemen's Houthis, who are launching missiles at ships in the Red Sea and Israel, in response to Western strikes on its territory. There is also the possibility of more advanced missiles being handed over to the Houthis and increased activity by Russian spies in Europe, including acts of sabotage.
Against the backdrop of full-scale aggression against Ukraine, Russia is also strengthening its ties with states and groups that threaten Israel's security.
As he writes The Economist, The Kremlin sees the Houthis as a tool to increase tensions in the Red Sea and the Middle East, while threatening Europe with acts of sabotage and intelligence activities.
Also the self-proclaimed “president” of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko statedwhat's in “In the event of attacks on Russian territory, President Putin may provide support to the Houthis to launch attacks on American and British aircraft carriers. These attacks could lead to their destruction and flooding, Lukashenko emphasized.”.
This strategy highlights Moscow's dangerous rapprochement with Israel's enemies such as Iran and its allies, posing additional challenges for the Jewish state.
Rockets, sabotage and murder: how Russia operates
According to The EconomistRussia can:
- Transfer more modern missiles to the Houthis, which are used to attack international shipping.
- Expand support for sabotage in Europe, including through attacks on energy infrastructure.
- Cover up terrorist regimes, blocking international sanctions at the UN.
These actions demonstrate how Moscow, despite heavy economic sanctions, continues to destabilize the international community.
“Russia is waging a hybrid war against the entire civilized world,” – emphasizes The Economist.
Houthis and Russia: new threats to Israel
The Houthis, a group actively supported by Iran, do not hide their hostility towards Israel. Their slogan “Death to Israel!” has long become part of the ideology. Now, with the help of Russia, they gain access to new technologies and weapons.
Why is this dangerous for Israel?
- Missile attacks. The Houthis regularly shell targets in the Red Sea, including merchant ships, threatening Israeli routes.
- Cooperation with Iran. Tehran provides drones and missiles to the Houthis, which they use against Israeli allies such as Saudi Arabia.
- Threat to global security. With Russian support, the Houthis could expand beyond the region and attack international targets, including Western aircraft carriers.
“Russia, by actively helping the Houthis, directly harms Israel,” – experts say.
Aggression against Ukraine: a reason for isolation
Russia's actions against Ukraine are causing incredible suffering for the Ukrainian people. Destruction, massacres of civilians, the use of terrorist tactics – all this confirms that Russia is not acting as a state, but as a sponsor of terrorism.
- Peaceful cities under fire. On November 17, Russia carried out a large-scale air attack on Ukraine, again showing contempt for international law.
- Humanitarian catastrophe. Millions of Ukrainians became refugees, thousands were killed.
These actions remind the world that Russia is an enemy not only of Ukraine, but of all democracies, including Israel.
“A country that destroys civilians will never become a reliable partner,” – emphasizes The Economist.
