Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian said in an interview that Israel, which last month fought a 12-day war with Iran, had attempted to assassinate him.

The Israeli military said it attacked Houthi targets in the ports of Hodeidah, Ras Isa and Salif, and Ras Qantib power plant in Yemen on Monday. This was in response to repeated attacks by the Iran-aligned group on Israel,

Israel struck Houthi targets at three Yemeni ports and a power plant, the military said early on Monday, in its first attack on Yemen in nearly a month.
