Missile fire from Yemen targeted southern Israel for the first time in the war, as Iran intensified its attacks across multiple fronts. Sirens sounded in Beersheba after a missile was launched by the Iran backed Houthis, though it was intercepted by the military. An early warning was also issued in Eilat. The Houthis had earlier warned they were ready to escalate their involvement against Israel and the United States.

Shortly before midnight, an Iranian cluster missile struck central Israel, killing a man in Tel Aviv who was not in a protected space. Three others were wounded, and additional impact sites in nearby cities caused property damage. Other missiles launched toward central, northern, and southern Israel overnight were intercepted, with no further casualties reported.

The conflict extended beyond Israel. The military carried out strikes in Tehran and Beirut as fighting with Iran entered its second month. In the United Arab Emirates, five people were wounded by debris from an intercepted missile near a commercial area in Abu Dhabi, while Saudi Arabia said it intercepted a ballistic missile fired toward Riyadh.

Reports citing Saudi and American sources said an Iranian strike on Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia damaged refueling aircraft and wounded American personnel, two critically. President Donald Trump claimed that Iran leadership figures had been severely hit and urged Saudi Arabia to join the Abraham Accords, though he provided no evidence for his assertions.
