IDF Intercept Houthi Missile Launched from Yemen

Israel’s air defense systems successfully intercepted a ballistic missile launched from Yemen by the Iran-backed Houthis.
The projectile, reportedly a hypersonic missile, was aimed at Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv, according to a statement broadcast by Houthi-run al-Masirah TV.
Sirens were activated across several regions, including the Dead Sea and Judean Desert areas, prompting thousands of residents to seek shelter before dawn. Although the missile was intercepted mid-air, fragments caused a small fire near Jerusalem. No casualties have been reported.
The Houthi spokesperson, Yahya Sarea, claimed the attack temporarily disrupted air traffic and reiterated the group’s commitment to continue strikes in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza.
Israel responded by warning of a potential naval and air blockade on Yemen if such attacks persist.
