In a significant escalation of conflict, Israeli air defenses intercepted a projectile from Yemen, with debris causing fires near Bet Shemesh. This incident adds to the mounting violence since October, attributed to Houthi attacks allied with Hamas and Hezbollah. Concurrently, Iraqi groups claimed drone strikes on Israeli targets. The situation is under scrutiny as Arab leaders convene in Riyadh to address the ongoing Israeli actions in Palestine and Lebanon, which saw at least 30 fatalities in Gaza and over 40 in Lebanon due to recent strikes.
