Since the beginning of the war in the Gaza Strip, more than 200 drones and cruise missiles have been launched from Yemen at Israel, according to IDF data.
One cruise missile struck near Eilat in March, and one drone struck Tel Aviv overnight.
The IDF says the vast majority of the threats were intercepted by US forces and in a handful of cases by Israeli fighter jets and ground-based air defense systems.
