A fresh security scare unfolded in southern Israel after the Israeli military said it intercepted a drone launched by Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi movement toward the Red Sea city of Eilat. Air raid sirens echoed across the strategic port city as Israeli air defenses moved into action, preventing the UAV from reaching its target. According to the IDF, the drone was intercepted shortly after entering the threat envelope around Eilat, and no injuries or damage were reported. The latest incident came just hours after reports that the Houthis had launched ballistic missiles toward Israel, highlighting the group's continued ability to threaten Israeli territory despite recent regional ceasefire efforts.
