Israeli military intercepts missile launched from Yemen, army says

Israel’s military intercepted a missile early on Wednesday that was launched from Yemen and crossed into Israeli territory, the army said in a statement.
Sirens were activated due to the possibility of falling shrapnel from the interception, the army added.
“For the 5th time in a week, millions of Israelis were sent to shelter as Houthi terrorists in Yemen launched a missile attack,” the Israeli military said in a post on X.
The Iran-backed Houthi group has repeatedly fired drones and missiles toward Israel in what it has described as acts of solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza.
