Missile Duel: Yemen's Houthis Target Israel

In a dramatic turn of events, Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels launched missiles at central Israel, with the former claiming responsibility for the aggressive act.

While the Houthis announced their operation's success, including deploying drones, Israel's military did not comment on these claims, highlighting rising tensions in solidarity with Gaza’s Palestinians.
