The situation in the Middle East has intensified as the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) intercepted multiple missiles fired from Yemen by Houthi rebels, marking a significant escalation in hostilities. Over the past week, the Houthis have launched several missile attacks aimed at Israel, including strikes that triggered air raid sirens in Jerusalem, the West Bank, and central Israel, halting flights at Ben Gurion Airport and sending people into shelters. In retaliation, Israeli military operations have resulted in civilian casualties in Gaza, where recent airstrikes reportedly killed 14 individuals, including a woman and her two children. The ongoing conflicts have drawn international attention, with the US requesting a delay in major Israeli operations in Gaza, while the Houthis have warned that their missile operations will escalate.
