Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 15 Nov, 08:31 · Archive

Israeli forces killed a top Hamas commander in an overnight airstrike on southern Gaza, Israel said Sunday.

Iran's Revolutionary Guard claimed early on Sunday that it struck a radar system at an American helicopter base in Bahrain, the state-run IRNA news agency reported. The US military's Central Command did not immediately comment. Bahrain's military said its air defence systems had intercepted a number of Iranian projectiles before they reached their targets. This came after CENTCOM said on Friday that it had intercepted two Iranian drones headed toward Bahrain.

Earlier Sunday, Bahrain's Interior Ministry issued two nationwide alerts warning of a threat, the first such alerts since September. It did not specify the nature of the threat.

In Yemen, health authorities with the Iran-backed Houthi rebels said an airstrike on Sanaa wounded two women and two children, and blamed Saudi Arabia for the attack without offering evidence.
