Sirens sounded in a number of areas in Israel on Saturday morning following a missile launch from Yemen. The IDF announced only moments before that it had identified the launch of a missile from Yemen toward Israeli territory and that aerial defense systems were operating to intercept the missile.

Israel's military said on Saturday it intercepted a missile fired from Yemen and Houthi forces claimed responsibility for the attack, the third of its kind by the Iran-aligned group in 24 hours. The Israeli military said sirens were activated in a number of areas in Israel after the missile was launched.
