Houthis Exploit Ceasefire to Improve Missile Range, Accuracy

Western intelligence sources said Monday that the Iran-backed Houthis are using the current Israel-US-Iran ceasefire period to test missiles and improve both range and accuracy. The terror group has fired about six missiles and five drones toward Israel since resuming attacks on March 28, after suspending attacks during the October 2025 Gaza ceasefire. Abdul-Malik al-Houthi threatened to intervene for Hamas if the IDF launches a new Gaza operation and warned against any Israeli presence near Somaliland. Israel should read the pause as enemy preparation, not quiet, while keeping open its account with Houthi leadership.
