The Israeli Air Force is on heightened alert for potential missile and drone attacks by the Houthis in Yemen.
The level of alert was already raised by the IAF last week, after the Iran-backed group threatened to resume attacks on Israel.
The IAF continues to maintain readiness for potential Houthi attacks, as the US launched a major bombing campaign in Yemen last night.
Overnight, a missile was launched from Yemen, which landed in Egypt. The IDF is still investigating if the missile was aimed at Israel.
