IDF says it intercepted 'aerial threat' over Red Sea in the morning

The Israel Defense Forces says fighter jets were scrambled after an “aerial threat” was identified over the Red Sea this morning.

The Israeli Air Force intercepted the “hostile targets” which did not enter Israeli airspace, the IDF says.

The military publishes a video showing the interception, which according to Egyptian media occurred near the Red Sea town of Nuweiba.

Earlier today, IDF Spokesman Rear Adm. Daniel Hagari said that a strike in the Egyptian Red Sea town of Taba in the early hours of the morning originated from “the Red Sea area,” in an apparent reference to Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen.

The Egypt blasts came days after the Houthis attempted to fire missiles at Israel via the Red Sea.
