Israeli Military Faces Multi-Front Attacks in Region

Early Thursday, the Israeli military intercepted a missile fired from Yemen by Iran-backed Houthi rebels, with sirens sounding across central Israel but no casualties reported. Authorities advised the public to stay near protected areas and avoid rocket debris. The Houthis claimed the attack as an act of solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, continuing their series of missile launches against Israel since October 2023. On the same day, the Gaza Health Ministry reported 82 deaths amid ongoing conflict, while the Israeli military facilitated the entry of 100 aid trucks into Gaza. Additionally, the Israeli army announced it had killed a Hezbollah commander in southern Lebanon and intercepted a separate rocket from northern Gaza. These developments highlight the widening regional scope of the conflict, involving multiple fronts and actors.
