The Israeli occupation army announced, early Tuesday morning, that it had detected a missile launched from Yemen, claiming to have attempted to intercept it. Panic gripped illegal Israeli settlements across the occupied West Bank as sirens blared, warning of an incoming missile. Residents of numerous settlements east of the city of Nablus were abruptly awakened at dawn and rushed to take shelter, as the wailing sirens pierced the early morning calm.

The Israeli settlements affected included Gilgal, Shomron, Amichai, Achita, Itamar, Shvut Rachel, Adei Ad, Kida, Masua, Argaman, Yafit, Ma'aleh Ephraim, Hamra, Tomer, Gitit, Beka'ot, Petza'el, and Mekhora. Startled settlers scrambled out of bed and herded their families into safe rooms and bomb shelters, waiting anxiously for the all-clear.
Israeli occupation forces later claimed that the incoming missile, which military sources confirmed originated from Yemen, was successfully intercepted. No casualties or damage were reported. However, the attack rattled Israeli settlers illegally occupying Palestinian territory in the West Bank.
This latest incident comes just two days after a similar Yemeni missile launch triggered warning sirens across the southern West Bank and Beit Shemesh area west of Jerusalem.
