The Israeli military on June 8 said it was working to intercept a missile launched from Yemen, where the Iran-allied Houthi rebels operate.
The Houthi rebels, who in March said they were joining the Middle East war in support of Tehran, have previously fired missiles toward Israel.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) wrote on Telegram that it “has identified the launch of a missile from Yemen toward Israeli territory, aerial defense systems are operating to intercept the threat.”
“The IDF remains on high alert and is fully prepared to continue operations across all arenas against those who threaten the State of Israel,” it added.
Earlier in the morning, the Israeli military said its forces targeted Iranian regime sites early in retaliation for Tehran’s latest attacks on Israel, as the wobbly cease-fire in the Middle East again appeared to be in danger.
