Israel intercepts missile launched by Houthi rebels as US airstrikes hit Yemen

  • On Sunday, Houthi rebels launched a ballistic missile that landed near the runway at Ben-Gurion International Airport outside Tel Aviv, causing damage and injuries.
  • The missile attack followed a series of five launches in two days by the Iran-backed Houthi group amid ongoing tensions related to the Israel-Hamas conflict and Yemen-US hostilities.
  • Air raid sirens sounded nationwide, flights were suspended briefly, and at least three people were injured by the blast or while seeking shelter, all treated at Shiba Medical Center.
  • Defense Minister Israel Katz vowed retaliation with a “strike sevenfold,” while officials blamed Iran for the attack and security Cabinet members planned to vote on escalating operations.
  • The missile strike marks a significant escalation in the Israel-Houthi conflict and intensifies regional instability as U.S. Airstrikes continue targeting Houthi positions in Yemen.
