Drones in the Sky: Yemen’s Houthis Claim Attacks on Tel Aviv
Hey there! 👋 Have you ever heard about drones being used in conflicts? Well, here’s a story unfolding right now.
Yemen’s Houthi group says they sent drones towards Tel Aviv, a major city in Israel. 🛫 The Houthi spokesperson, Yahya Sarea, announced that they targeted two military sites in Tel Aviv using two drones.
But what happened to those drones? 🧐 According to news reports, one of the drones was intercepted before it could reach Israel. It crashed in Jordan, near the Dead Sea. The Jordanian army confirmed that an unidentified drone entered their airspace and crashed without causing any harm.
Why is this happening? The Houthis, a group controlling parts of Yemen, say they’re supporting the people in Gaza. They want to show solidarity during the ongoing conflicts in the region.
Meanwhile, the United States has been involved too. The Houthis claim they have carried out attacks against U.S. ships in the Red Sea. But the U.S. Central Command says their ships are continuing their operations without interruption.
In response, there have been airstrikes in Yemen. Residents in the capital city, Sanaa, reported hearing loud noises from jets and explosions. One resident said, “All that we hear is the sound of a speeding missile less than a second before it hits and explodes.” 💥
All of this might sound a bit complicated, but it’s important to know that conflicts like these affect many people, especially children and families. Peace is something everyone hopes for. ✌️
Remember, whenever you hear about events like this, it’s okay to ask questions and learn more. Understanding the world helps us become more informed and compassionate people. 🌍❤️
