Jerusalem: The Israel Defence Forces (IDF) said on Friday that it had intercepted a missile launched from Yemen before it could enter Israeli territory.

Israel’s emergency service, Magen David Adom (MDA), reported that there were no casualties or damage.

The missile launch triggered air defence sirens across central Israel, including Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, prompting millions to seek shelter.

The Israel Police said officers were conducting searches for potential impact sites to ensure public safety.

Following the missile launch, Israel’s Ynet news website reported that an Israir flight from Athens to Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv circled in the air before receiving clearance to land.

This marks the third missile launch from Yemen into Israel since fighting in Gaza resumed on Tuesday.
