Yemen's Houthis claim first attack on Israel since start of Mideast war

Yemen's Iran-backed Houthi rebels on Saturday claimed their first attack on Israel since the start of the Middle East war a month ago.

In a statement posted on X, the group, which controls most of northern Yemen and targeted Israel with drones and missiles throughout much of the Gaza war, said it had launched missiles at Israeli military sites.

A few hours earlier, the Israeli military said it had identified an attack from Yemen and was working to intercept it.
