IDF confirms downing missile fired from Yemen, says checking reports of fallen debris near Modiin

In another update, the IDF now says it downed the missile fired from Yemen.

The military adds that it’s looking into reports that missile debris fell near the central city of Modiin.

There is no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack, which occurred shortly after 4:30 a.m., waking millions of people and sending them scrambling to air raid shelters. Yemen’s Iran-backed Houthi rebels have launched missiles and drones at Israel nearly every day in recent weeks.
