Israel under attack: Millions run for shelter after missiles fired from Yemen and Gaza

Tel Aviv, April 10, 2025 — A panic-stricken scene gripped Israel tonight as millions of citizens were forced to seek bomb shelter after a wave of missiles launched from Yemen by the Houthis were detected, along with a new rocket offensive fired from the Gaza Strip.

The Iron Dome missile defense system was activated in several regions of the country, including the south, center and greater Tel Aviv. Israeli authorities confirmed that most of the projectiles were successfully intercepted, but they are still assessing possible damage in urban areas.

The government spokesman stated that Israel "will not stand idly by in the face of this coordinated escalation of aggression" and promised "an unprecedented response in the coming hours." Sources linked to the Defense Ministry indicate that strategic targets in Yemen and Gaza are already being mapped out for immediate military action.

The attack comes at a time of high regional tension, with the Houthis reiterating their support for the Palestinian cause and warning that their offensives will continue as long as Israel maintains its operations in Gaza.

So far, there have been no reports of fatalities, but the mood is on high alert. Schools and non-essential services have been suspended in several regions of the country, and the population has been instructed to remain close to safe zones.

The international community is following the escalation with concern, fearing that this episode could trigger a new chapter in a broader conflict in the Middle East.
