IDF downs missile fired from Yemen in week's 6th Houthi attack
A ballistic missile launched at Israel by the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen was successfully intercepted by air defenses, the military said Thursday night, in what has recently become an almost daily occurrence. The missile set off sirens shortly after 9:20 p.m. across central Israel, several West Bank settlements, and towns near Jerusalem, sending millions to bomb shelters. The attack also briefly halted the final of the Israel State Cup, held at Bloomfield Stadium in Tel Aviv, where tens of thousands of soccer fans gathered to watch Hapoel Beersheba play Beitar Jerusalem. 'The performance was not stopped by security forces at the time of the alert, and the incident is being investigated,' the IDF said. There were no reports of injuries or damage in the attack, which marked the sixth time in the past week that the Houthis have fired on Israel. The Houthis took responsibility for the missile fire, claiming to have targeted Ben Gurion Airport. Earlier this month, a Houthi missile slipped through air defenses and hit the grounds of the airport, injuring six people, none of them seriously. Thursday's missile fire was the first attack since Israel, on Wednesday, carried out an airstrike in Yemen, targeting the Houthi-held Sanaa International Airport and destroying a plane that was in use by the Iran-backed terror group. A separate strike earlier this month destroyed the airport's terminal and six planes, and left craters on its runway, according to Yemeni authorities. The airfield reopened for a flight 11 days later. Also this month, the Israeli Air Force struck the Houthi-controlled Hodeida and Salif ports in Yemen in response to the Iran-backed group's repeated attacks on Israel.
