Israel Intercepts Drone Launched from Yemen, Houthis Claim Attacks

Israel Intercepts Drone Launched from Yemen, Houthis Claim Attacks

Imagine a small, unmanned plane (a drone) was sent from Yemen towards Israel.

Israel's military noticed it and shot it down before it could cause any harm.

This happened because a group in Yemen, called the Houthis, says they're helping the people in Gaza, where there's a war going on.

The Houthis said they sent three drones to Israel.

One went towards Tel Aviv and Ashkelon, and another targeted the port town of Eilat.

Israel has been involved in strikes in Yemen in response.

This is happening because of the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
