At least 20 people were injured when a drone launched from Yemen struck the southern Israeli city of Eilat, Associated Press reported. Medical officials said two of the injured were in serious condition. It remains unclear whether the injuries were caused by the drone itself or by interceptor fire.

The Israeli military attributed the attack to Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen, who have regularly fired drones and missiles at Israel, claiming solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza.

Most previous launches have been intercepted by Israeli defences or landed in open areas without casualties. The strike marked one of the most serious Houthi attacks on Israeli territory to date.
