Yemen-based Houthi rebels have launched a series of ballistic missiles at Israel, marking a significant expansion of the ongoing regional conflict. The group targeted military sites, citing support for allies in Lebanon and Gaza, while the Israeli military reported successful interceptions of at least two projectiles. Simultaneously, the Israel Defense Forces carried out precision strikes against mobile command centers and weapons production facilities in Tehran, following earlier operations against nuclear sites.
