The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have reported that 16 rockets have been launched from Yemen towards Israel since the resumption of the Gaza war. 

These attacks, attributed to the Iran-backed Houthi militia, have targeted various regions, including Jerusalem and the Dead Sea area.

The IDF has successfully intercepted several of these rockets using advanced air defense systems, preventing significant damage or casualties.

The escalation highlights the Houthis' increasing involvement in regional conflicts, aligning with Iran's broader strategy to exert influence across the Middle East. 

The attacks have triggered air raid sirens in multiple locations, sending residents scrambling for shelter and heightening tensions in the region.

The IDF continues to monitor the situation closely, deploying additional resources to counter the threat and ensure the safety of Israeli citizens.

This development underscores the complex dynamics of the ongoing conflict and the challenges of addressing multi-front aggression in the region.
