DUBAI: The Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen claimed responsibility for launching six drones toward Israel on Tuesday evening, targeting Haifa, the Negev Desert, Eilat, and Beersheba.
The Israeli military said at least one drone was intercepted off the coast of Eilat, while the others likely fell short. No damage or casualties were reported.
Though the attack failed, it highlights the Houthis’ continued efforts to project force beyond Yemen amid regional tensions linked to the Gaza conflict.
