Israeli Woman Transported to Hospital After 2016 Beit Horon Knife Attack

The image dates back to June 2016, when two Palestinians carried out a stabbing attack at a mini-market in the West Bank settlement of Beit Horon. 

According to an article published in The Guardian, the attackers stabbed two Israeli women before being shot and killed by a security guard outside the shop. One of the women was critically injured.

During that time, Israeli forces killed at least 149 Palestinians, 104 of whom were identified as attackers.

Netanyahu Vows Severe Response to Houthi Missile Strike on Central Israel

On September 15, 2024, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared that Israel would impose a "heavy price" on the Iran-aligned Houthis following their unprecedented missile strike on central Israel. The missile, launched by the Houthis who control northern Yemen, marked the first time the group reached this far into Israeli territory.

The attack involved a new hypersonic ballistic missile that traveled 2,040 kilometers (1,270 miles) in just 11 and a half minutes, according to Houthi military spokesman Yahya Sarea.

An Israeli military official reported that while the missile was intercepted, it was not completely destroyed but fragmented in the air. This incident highlights the escalating tensions and the increasing capabilities of the Houthi forces, prompting Israel to prepare for a substantial response.

Houthi Rebels Claim Downing of U.S. MQ-9 Reaper Drone

On September 16, Yemen's Houthi rebels claimed they shot down an American-made MQ-9 Reaper drone. A video circulating online appears to show a surface-to-air missile strike followed by flaming wreckage on the ground. The U.S. military acknowledged awareness of the Houthis' claim but did not provide further details.

Ameen Hayyan, Director of the Yemeni Armed Forces Spokesperson’s Office, posted the video on his X account, stating: “This aircraft is the third to be downed within a week and the tenth of its kind that Yemeni air defenses have managed to shoot down during the Battle of the Promised Conquest and Sacred Jihad in support of Gaza.”
