An Israeli strike was conducted in Yemen on Sunday, The Times of Israel reported, quoting defence sources. The strike was reportedly a targeted assassination attempt of a Houthi leader. The Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) has not yet officially commented on the incident.

For the first time, Yemen’s Houthis have publicly claimed a coordinated ballistic missile strike on Israel in collaboration with Iran, signalling a deeper regional alignment against Tel Aviv amid the ongoing Israel-Iran conflict.

CAIRO (Reuters) -A member of Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthi movement said on Al Jazeera Mubasher TV on Tuesday that the group will intervene to support Iran against Israel like it did in support of Palestinians in Gaza.
