Houthis launch missiles, drones targeting Israel, claim operations successful

The Houthi movement from Yemen launched missile attacks on Israel, claiming responsibility for two ballistic missiles aimed at Ben Gurion Airport and the Sdot Micha military base. According to Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saria, the attacks were part of their support for the Palestinian people. The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) reported that only one missile reached Israel and was successfully intercepted, with the other likely falling short. Additionally, the Houthis stated they targeted a 'high-value target' in Ashkelon using a drone, although no drones reportedly reached Israel. The attacks triggered sirens across central Israel but resulted in no confirmed casualties or significant damage. The situation reflects ongoing regional tensions and the Houthis' commitment to their military objectives against Israel, as emphasized in their statements.
