Houthi missile strikes central Israel for first time

Air raid sirens sounded across Tel Aviv and central Israel moments before a surface-to-surface missile, fired by Yemen's Houthis, struck central Israel for the first time. The missile landed around 6.30am local time (3.30am GMT) on Sunday in an unpopulated area, causing no injuries.
"Following the sirens that sounded a short while ago in central Israel, a surface-to-surface missile was identified crossing into central Israel from the east and fell in an open area. No injuries were reported," the Israeli military said.
Houthi spokesperson Nasruddin Amer said in a post on X that a Yemeni missile had reached Israel after "20 missiles failed to intercept", describing the strike as the "beginning".
