Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen said they launched a missile strike on Israel for the first time since the war began. The group claimed it fired ballistic missiles at “sensitive Israeli military sites.” The Israel Defense Forces said it intercepted a missile coming from Yemen. The Houthis said the attack was in response to strikes in Iran, Lebanon, Iraq and Palestinian areas. They added that operations will continue until the “aggression” stops. The move signals a possible widening of the conflict as fighting continues across multiple fronts in the region. (PC: BBC)
