A spokesperson for the Yemen Ansar Allah movement (aka Houthis) took credit for the attack.
Media reported earlier that an explosion occurred near the consulate of the United States in Tel Aviv. A US official said that the embassy office was not damaged and no US citizens were harmed in the attack, according to Axios.
The Tel Aviv fire department said a drone may have been used in the attack, but the air raid siren was not going off before the explosion.
During searches, emergency services found the body of a lifeless man in an apartment near the location where the explosion occurred, the Post said, adding that seven people were taken to hospitals with minor injuries.
