Israeli artillery fire struck the Tuffah neighborhood in Gaza City, injuring eleven people, according to local reports. The attack targeted a residential area, causing damage to nearby buildings. Emergency services responded quickly to the scene.
The Israeli military confirmed the shelling as part of ongoing operations in the region. No immediate statements were issued regarding the casualties. The attack followed a series of strikes in the area over the past week.
The incident occurred as Yemeni Houthi rebels launched ballistic missiles at Aden airport, leading to the suspension of air traffic. This marks the second such attack on the airport in less than a week. The Houthi group has previously claimed responsibility for similar strikes.
The conflict in Gaza continues to escalate, with frequent exchanges of fire between Israeli forces and Palestinian groups. The situation in Yemen remains volatile, with Houthi attacks targeting key infrastructure. International calls for de-escalation have increased in recent days.
The attacks highlight the interconnected nature of regional conflicts, with spillover effects impacting civilian infrastructure and daily life. Both sides have faced international criticism for civilian casualties.
The humanitarian situation in Gaza remains dire, with limited access to aid and ongoing displacement. The recent attacks add to the growing concerns over the safety of civilians in the region.
