Dozens of people, including doctors and journalists, were killed in Israeli strikes on Gaza. Meanwhile, Israel said it intercepted a missile from Yemen on Friday amid renewed tensions with the Houthis.

Israel’s military said on Friday that it intercepted a missile fired from Yemen before it could enter Israeli territory.

The missile had caused warning sirens to sound in several Israeli cities due to the threat posed by falling debris, the Israeli military said on social media.

The incident occurred shortly after Israeli fighter jets struck a number sites in Yemen on Thursday, including the international airport in Sanaa and the adjacent al-Dailami Air Base. Power stations and ports were also hit.

Israel said it was targeting the Iran-backed Houthi militant group.

The Houthis said the Israeli strikes killed at least six people and injured more than 40 others.
