The IDF intercepted a missile that had been launched from Yemen at Israeli territory, the military said early Friday morning. At 6:32 a.m., the IDF announced a missile launch had been detected from Yemen, and advised to follow Home Front Command guidelines.
Shortly after, sirens sounded in Tel Aviv, across central Israel, the Jerusalem area, and the West Bank. Magen David Adom said in a statement that no injuries have been reported thus far. Later on Friday, Israel Police said it had operated since the morning to extinguish a fire that had erupted near the area of the Avshalom Cave situated in the Judean Hills due to interceptor shrapnel impacting in the area.
Police added that visitors in the area were evacuated and the blaze was put out. This comes after Houthi media reported that some 33 people had died in what it called US strikes on the port city of Ras Isa. Houthi-controlled Al Masirah TV said the strikes, which the US military said were carried out to cut off a source of fuel for the Houthi terrorist group, also wounded 80 people. (Source)
