The Houthis, who are backed by Iran, have targeted commercial ships in the Red Sea in solidarity with Hamas in Gaza. They launched a missile at Israel overnight.

On the other hand, Hamas is putting a fight even as the conditions for a ceasefire are being talked upon. Israel is now involved into direct combat at three fronts. Israel's war with Hamas and Hezbollah continues.

Israel’s military says it intercepted a missile fired toward the country by Yemen’s Houthi rebels. The attack set off sirens late Monday in central areas of Israel, including Tel Aviv.

Israel’s devastating campaigns against Iran’s regional allies have severely weakened its arch-enemy’s ability to project its power, but Yemen’s Tehran-backed Houthi rebels remain a stubborn thorn in its side,

The U.S. has been targeting Houthi facilities in Yemen and has long carried out military activities in the country.

As 2024 comes to an end, Israel is now less worried about threats from Hamas and Hezbollah and instead very much concerned over Iran and Syria.

The Iranian-backed Houthi militia in Yemen on Tuesday claimed to have attacked the international airport in Tel Aviv as well as targets in Jerusalem. Houthi military spokesman Yehya Saree said in a televised statement that Tel Aviv's Ben Gurion Airport and an electricity plant in the Jerusalem area had been attacked with ballistic missiles.

Israel has banned the pan-Arab Al Jazeera network and accused six of its Gaza reporters of being militants. The Qatar-based broadcaster denies the allegations and accuses Israel of trying to silence its war coverage, which has focused heavily on civilian casualties from Israeli military operations.

World Health Organization director Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, who escaped an Israeli airstrike in Yemen, says Gaza's health crisis is indescribable and is calling for a ceasefire.

The war-torn Gaza Strip faces a medical emergency as dozens of patients have been evacuated amid Israel's offensive. Meanwhile, regional tensions rise with US airstrikes in Yemen and France's military actions against Islamic State militants in Syria,
