A ballistic missile launched by the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen at Israel a short while ago was intercepted by air defenses, the military says.
There are no immediate reports of impacts or injuries. Sirens had sounded in several settlements in the southern West Bank and communities near the Dead Sea in southern Israel.
Since March 18, when the IDF resumed its offensive against Hamas in the Gaza Strip, the Houthis in Yemen have launched 65 ballistic missiles and at least 17 drones at Israel. Several of the missiles have fallen short.
