Drone attack on Israel's Tel Aviv leaves one dead, at least 10 injured
Yemen's Houthi fighters have claimed responsibility following a suspected drone attack on Israel's Tel Aviv, which killed one person and injured at least 10, according to reports. A spokesperson for the Houthi armed forces said in a post on social media on Friday that the Yemen-based group had "targeted'Tel Aviv' in occupied Palestine". The Israeli military said it had opened an investigation into the large explosion near the United States Embassy office in the city and would determine why the country's air defence systems were not activated to intercept the "aerial target". Israel's air force has increased patrols to "protect the country's skies", the military added in a post on social media. Israeli police said the body of a man was found in an apartment close to the explosion and that the circumstances were being investigated.
