Houthi Drone Hits Ramon Airport Amid Escalation in Gaza City

On Sunday, a Houthi drone launched from Yemen breached Israel's air defenses and struck Ramon International Airport near Eilat, causing minor injuries to a 63-year-old man and temporary closure of the airport's airspace. The Houthis claimed responsibility, framing it as retaliation after Israel's airstrike killed the Houthi prime minister and other officials in Sanaa two weeks prior. Israel intercepted multiple drones launched from Yemen, but one slipped through and hit the arrivals hall, causing limited damage before flights resumed within hours. Concurrently, Israel intensified its military offensive in Gaza City, including bombing residential and high-rise buildings, amid evacuation orders and international concern over worsening humanitarian conditions. Additionally, Israel's Supreme Court ruled that Palestinian detainees were not being provided adequate food, mandating improvements in their basic living conditions. The Houthi attack and Gaza military actions reflect escalating tensions in the region, with the Houthis threatening further retaliation and Israel continuing its security operations.
