Houthi Missile Intercepted by Israel as Gaza Conflict Escalates
Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

The conflict in Gaza took a dramatic turn on Thursday as Yemen’s rebel Houthi group fired a missile at Israel, which

was intercepted by the Israeli military.

The ballistic missile was launched towards Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv, according to the Houthi group’s military

spokesperson.

The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed that the missile was intercepted before entering Israeli territory, and no

injuries were reported. However, the incident has raised concerns about the escalating conflict in the region.

The Houthi group, which controls parts of Yemen, has vowed to support the Palestinians in the war against Israel. The

group’s military spokesperson said that the missile attack was a response to the Israeli military’s actions in Gaza.

The conflict in Gaza has resulted in the deaths of hundreds of people, including civilians and militants. The Israeli

military has launched a series of air strikes against Hamas targets in Gaza, which has led to widespread destruction and displacement.

The Houthi group’s involvement in the conflict has added a new dimension to the crisis. The group has been backed

by Iran, which has been accused of providing military support to the Houthis.

The United States has condemned the Houthi group’s actions and has vowed to support Israel’s right to self-defense.

The US has also launched military strikes against Houthi targets in Yemen.

The conflict in Gaza has sparked widespread international condemnation, with many countries calling for a ceasefire and an end to the violence. However, the situation remains volatile, and the risk of further escalation remains high.

The Israeli military has extended its ground operations in Gaza, with troops moving into the Netzarim Corridor. The move has raised concerns about the potential for further violence and civilian casualties.
