Israeli Army Says It Is Working to Intercept Missile Launched From Yemen
- Early on Saturday, Israeli military forces detected a ballistic missile launched from Yemen by the Iranian-supported Houthi group toward southern Israel and likely intercepted it successfully.
- The missile was launched from Yemen four days after a ceasefire took effect, ending a 12-day conflict between Israel and Iran-backed forces, during which the Houthis engaged in limited missile activity, likely influenced by an Israeli strike that critically injured their military chief.
- Sirens were heard across extensive parts of southern Israel, including areas such as Be'er Sheva, the Dead Sea vicinity, Arad, and Dimona, as defense forces successfully intercepted the missile threat without any reported casualties or damage.
- Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Saree claimed responsibility, stating the attack targeted Beersheba in solidarity with Gaza, and Israel threatened a naval and air blockade if attacks continue.
- This incident highlights ongoing regional tensions involving Iranian proxies and underscores Israel’s vigilance against missile attacks amid fragile ceasefire conditions and broader conflict dynamics.
