In a dramatic escalation, Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthis launched hypersonic ballistic missiles targeting Tel Aviv’s sensitive military and civilian sites. The coordinated assault followed Iran’s mass missile salvo, with Houthi forces confirming that "Palestine 2" missiles struck central Israel’s Jaffa region. Israel had earlier bombed a top Houthi commander in Yemen. The Houthis declared solidarity with Gaza and Iran, vowing more strikes unless Israel ends the siege. The assault marks the first direct Houthi attack inside Israeli territory, further escalating regional tensions and drawing in Iran's proxy networks.
