The Israeli army announced, on Saturday, that it had intercepted a missile fired from Yemen before entering the territory of Israel, and a running path from the eastern side.

The army said, in a statement: “After the sirens launched a while ago in several areas of Israel, a missile fired from Yemen was subjected to before entering Israeli lands.”

The Houthis control large areas of Yemen, including the capital, Sanaa.

Since the outbreak of the war between Israel and “Hamas” in the Gaza Strip, after the October 20 attack, the Houthis have launched dozens of missile attacks against Israel and against ships in the Red Sea, they say they are linked to it.

Another pro -Iranian group, the "Islamic Resistance in Iraq", has adopted similar attacks against Israel.

The Houthi regions in Yemen are subjected to almost daily raids, who have held the United States their responsibility since Washington announced on March 15th, the launch of a military operation against them to stop their attacks on ships in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden.

The Israeli Army Radio stated that the missile that was intercepted during the night is the twenty -second missile that the Houthis launched since the resumption of their attacks when Israel renewed its attack on Gaza on March 18, according to the French Press Agency.
