Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has issued a stern warning to Yemen's Houthis after the group fired a missile deep into Israel. The incident occurred early in the morning when a projectile was launched from Yemen towards Israel. Fortunately, the missile most likely fragmented mid-air and landed in an open area in central Israel, causing no injuries.

The Israel Defense Forces confirmed the attack and shared videos showing smoke rising from the impact site. Additionally, shattered glass was reported at a train station in Modi'in, a city located between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. The Houthis, backed by Iran, claimed responsibility for the attack and warned of more strikes as the anniversary of a previous attack approaches.
