The Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen claim to have launched two ballistic missiles at Israel in the past day in coordination with Iran, targeting “sensitive Israeli enemy targets” in the Tel Aviv area.

Despite the claims, military officials tell The Times of Israel that the IDF is unaware of any ballistic missile fire from Yemen in the previous 24 hours.

A missile launched by the Houthis on Friday hit a Palestinian town in the West Bank, wounding several people. The group did not take responsibility for the launch.
