The Houthis in Yemen take responsibility for the overnight ballistic missile attack on Israel, claiming to have targeted “several sensitive targets” in Tel Aviv using a projectile with a cluster bomb warhead.

According to the military, the missile was successfully intercepted.

There is no comment from the IDF on the claim that the projectile was fitted with a cluster bomb warhead.

There were no reports of injuries or damage, but the attack triggered sirens at around 3:45 a.m. in Tel Aviv and a large number of towns and communities in central Israel.

The Iran-backed Houthis have fired several missiles with cluster bomb warheads at Israel in recent weeks.
