Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu issued a threat to Yemen's Houthis during a cabinet meeting in Jerusalem, saying: "They should have known by now that we are charging a heavy price for any attempt to harm us."
On Sunday, around 6:30am local time (3:30am GMT), 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.
"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".
