Israel’s army says it intercepted a missile fired from Yemen, where Iran-backed Houthi rebels have kept up attacks on Israel since soon after the Gaza offensive began in 2023, AFP reports.
“Following the sirens that sounded a short while ago in several areas in Israel, a missile launched from Yemen was intercepted,” the Israeli army says in a statement.
AFP correspondents in Jerusalem heard explosions, probably from the interception of the missile.
