The Iran-backed Houthi militia claimed responsibility for a drone attack in central Tel Aviv, Israel, that crashed into a building near the U.S. consulate early Friday, killing at least one person. The Israeli military said it was still investigating the episode, including who had launched the drone, which was carrying explosives.
