Israel’s military reported that a surface-to-surface missile launched from Yemen struck a desolate region in central Israel, causing no injuries.
The missile, which was fired by the Houthi rebels in Yemen, landed in an unoccupied area, avoiding any casualties or property damage.
The missile strike occurred shortly after air raid sirens were triggered across Tel Aviv and other central Israeli locations.
The activation of the sirens sent residents scrambling for shelter and heightened the alert level throughout the region. Authorities quickly moved to assess the situation and ensure public safety.
In a statement, the military provided details about the incident:
“Following the activation of sirens earlier today in central Israel, we detected a surface-to-surface missile crossing into the area from the east and landing in an open space.
Thankfully, there have been no reports of injuries or damage.”
The military also emphasized their ongoing monitoring and defensive measures to protect against further threats.
This incident underscores the ongoing tensions and conflicts involving Yemen’s Houthi rebels, who have previously targeted Israeli and regional interests.
