Yemeni Missile Strikes Tel Aviv, Injuring Six Amid Escalating Conflict

---

A missile fired from Yemen struck Tel Aviv early Saturday morning, injuring six Israelis. The missile, identified as a Yemeni-made hypersonic ballistic missile, fell in the city despite air raid sirens being activated across several regions in Israel. The Israeli Home Front Command confirmed the activation of sirens in Tel Aviv and central Israel, while local media reported damage from the missile strike. This incident marks a significant escalation in hostilities, as it comes on the heels of Israeli airstrikes targeting Houthi military positions in Yemen, including strikes on ports and energy infrastructure in Sanaa and Hodeidah. The Yemeni Houthi group, Ansar Allah, has claimed responsibility for the missile attack, stating it was part of their operations in solidarity with Gaza amidst the ongoing conflict that has resulted in substantial casualties among Palestinians since October 7, 2023. The group has also conducted drone operations against Israeli targets, asserting that their attacks will continue until Israel ceases its military actions in Gaza.
