Israel strikes Sanaa, Yemen, targeting Houthi areas in defensive response to drone attacks.

Israel conducted airstrikes on Yemen's capital, Sanaa, targeting areas allegedly used by Houthi rebels. The Houthis denied that their leaders were hit and described the attack as a failure. This follows Israel's interception of drones launched from Yemen. The strikes are part of an ongoing conflict, with the Houthi group, supported by Iran, regularly attacking Israel with drones and missiles since the Gaza war in 2023. Israel justifies the strikes as defensive actions against threats.
