Sirens sounded across several areas in Israel after the missile launch, signaling the heightened security threat. Israel's ambulance service reported no serious injuries despite the alarming siren warnings.
This missile strike follows a series of U.S. airstrikes on Houthi positions in Yemen. Among the recent airstrikes was an attack on Sanaa on Wednesday, which resulted in civilian casualties.
The Houthis have claimed responsibility for the missile strike, citing their actions as retaliation for the collapse of their ceasefire with Hamas.
