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.

There are no reports of injuries or damage in the attack.

Sirens had sounded across central Israel. Preceding the sirens by some three minutes, an early warning was issued to residents, alerting civilians of the long-range missile attack via a push notification on their phones.

As is routine, Ben Gurion Airport halted operations when the missile was launched, and has now reopened. A Houthi ballistic missile on Sunday unprecedentedly impacted a few hundred yards from the main control tower, after interception efforts failed, prompting most foreign airlines to begin an ongoing suspension of Israel flights.

Today’s attack comes three days after US President Donald Trump announced a truce between the US and the Houthis, which caught Israel by surprise. The Houthis vowed to continue their attacks against Israel, despite the agreement with Washington.

Since March 18, when the IDF resumed its offensive against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, the Houthis in Yemen have launched some 28 ballistic missiles and dozens of drones at Israel.
