IDF says missile fired by Yemen’s Houthis Thursday shot down

[IsraelTimes] A ballistic missile launched at Israel by the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen was successfully intercepted by air defenses a short while ago, the military says.

Sirens had sounded in the Jerusalem area, southern West Bank settlements, and some areas of central and southern Israel. Preceding the sirens by three minutes, an early warning was issued to residents, alerting civilians of the long-range missile attack via a push notification on their phones.

Since March 18, when the IDF resumed its offensive against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, the Houthis in Yemen have launched 46 ballistic missiles and at least 11 drones at Israel. Several of the missiles have fallen short.
