Houthi Drone Strike Hits Tel Aviv, Israel
TEL AVIV - At least one person was killed and around a dozen injured after a Houthi drone strike hit Tel Aviv located near the U.S. Embassy in Israel. This is not the first time low-flying drones have been able to evade Israel's radar systems with both the Houthis and Iran having now successfully hit locations within the country with drones or missiles. Low-flying drones are far more capable of evading Israel's radar systems than ballistic missiles.
The Israel Defense Forces added that the retaliatory response also comes after “hundreds of attacks carried out against the state of Israel in recent months”.
Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said “the blood of Israeli citizens has a price,” and added that “result will be identical”.
“The fire that is currently burning in Hodeidah is seen across the Middle East and the significance is clear. The first time that they harmed an Israeli citizen, we struck them. And we will do this in any place where it may be required.”
