Israeli Palestinian Conflict

On December 30, 2024, sirens sounded in Tel Aviv after a missile launched from Yemen was intercepted by the Israeli Air Force. The missile’s interception triggered warnings of falling shrapnel, and debris was found in Beit Shemesh. The missile attack was attributed to Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi militants, who have targeted Israel as part of their solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza. Israel’s Ambassador to the United Nations issued a stern final warning to the Houthis, threatening them with the same fate as Hamas, Hezbollah, and Syria's Bashar al-Assad if the attacks continued. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also warned that Israel was just beginning its response to the Houthis, following recent strikes on Houthi-linked targets in Yemen. The U.N. raised concerns about the escalating violence and its broader regional impact. The World Health Organization's Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus also reported an injury during an Israeli attack on an airport in Yemen.
