IDF identified the launch of a missile from Yemen, with alerts expected to sound in the coming minutes, the military said.<\/p>\n

The IDF intercepted two Houthi<\/a> missiles launched from Yemen<\/a> on Thursday, with sirens triggered across central Israel.<\/p>\n

No casualties or injuries were reported after the sirens sounded. Magen David Adom responded to cases of panic attacks and injuries sustained by people rushing to the shelters.<\/p>\n

This is thethird attack from Yemen in the past day.<\/a> A Houthi drone crashed into an Eilat hotel<\/a> earlier, and the IDF intercepted a second drone from the Houthis shortly after.<\/p>\n

“Earlier this evening, the Air Force intercepted another drone that had been launched from Yemen in recent hours,” the statement said, adding that no alerts were activated during the incident.<\/p>\n

The IDF confirmed that it is investigating the crash site of one of the drones in the Eilat area earlier Thursday evening.<\/p>\n

IDF intercepts Houthi missile two days earlier<\/h3>\n

On Tuesday, the IDF intercepted a Houthi missile<\/a> after alarms were triggered across central Israel.<\/p>\n

The attack came after a series of strikes on Hodeidah Port, with Houthi-linked media stating that at least 12 strikes were recorded.<\/p>\n

The IDF said that the attack aims to enforce a maritime blockade on the Houthis and prevent the smuggling of weapons to the terror organization.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
