A ballistic missile fired by Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi rebels at Israel overnight fell short, military officials say.
Hebrew media reports say the missile apparently fell in Saudi Arabia.
The missile did not trigger any alarms in Israel.
The missile came after Israel, on Thursday, carried out strikes that killed several top Houthi officials.
Since March 18, when the IDF resumed its offensive against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, the Houthis in Yemen have launched 72 ballistic missiles and at least 23 drones at Israel. Several missiles have fallen short.
