JAKARTA - The Houthi group in Yemen carried out attacks targeting the cities of Tel Aviv and Ashkelon in Israel with ballistic missiles and drones to support Gaza and Lebanon.

Israeli troops said they had intercepted a missile fired from Yemen after sirens and explosions were heard on Friday, September 27 morning.

Houthi military spokesman Yahya Sarea said their operations would not stop in the coming days until Israeli attacks on Gaza and Lebanon stopped.

"We will carry out more military operations against Israel's enemies as a victory over the blood of our brothers in Palestine and Lebanon," Yahya said in a televised address.

Israeli attacks have killed more than 600 people in Lebanon since Monday, September 23, with the conflict between Israel and Iran-backed Hezbollah reaching its most intense point in more than 18 years.

Hezbollah has fired rockets at Israel for nearly a year to support its Hamas allies, who are fighting Israel in Gaza.
