  • A missile launched by Yemen's Houthi rebels struck near Tel Aviv's Ben-Gurion Airport, briefly halting flights and prompting Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz to vow severe retaliation.
  • Hamas released a video showing an injured Israeli hostage, identified as Maxim Herkin, as hostage negotiations remain stalled despite international mediation efforts by Qatar and Egypt.
