Israel 's Defence Forces have carried out a major strike against what they claim were several military sites controlled by Houthi rebels in Yemen and Hezbollah forces in southern Lebanon .
The blast, in a building near the United States consulate, killed one person and left ten others injured, with a Houthi spokesperson hailing the attack as a"new phase" in the group's attempt to target Israel. In response, the IDF hit a number of"military targets" in Al Hudaydah, a Houthi stronghold, claiming the city's port was the main point of entry for Iranian weapons into Yemen.
Israeli fighter jets also hit several fuel tanks, setting them alight and damaging the city's power plant, a Houthi spokesperson claimed.

A ceasefire agreement being pushed by the US, Qatar and others is stalling, with Mr Netanyahu and Hamas officials both rejecting elements of the plan.
