IDF Intercepts Missile Yemen, Rockets Gaza Amid Sirens Across Israel

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed successful interceptions of multiple missile and rocket attacks from hostile groups on Tuesday evening. The Israeli Air Force intercepted a ballistic missile launched by Yemen’s Iran-aligned Houthi terrorists, who have been targeting Israel in solidarity with Gaza and threatening Israeli shipping in the Red Sea. Simultaneously, Palestinian terrorists fired two rockets from the southern Gaza Strip into Israeli territory near the border, both of which were also intercepted without causing injuries or damage. These incidents triggered widespread air-raid sirens in various Israeli communities, prompting residents to seek shelter. Israel has warned Yemen’s Houthi movement of a naval and air blockade if such attacks continue, while continuing retaliatory airstrikes. The ongoing conflict between Israel and Palestinian militants persists alongside these cross-border attacks.
