The Israeli occupation forces claimed the missile was intercepted before it entered Israeli airspace, citing the activation of sirens due to potential falling shrapnel from the interception. “Sirens regarding rocket and missile launches were activated due to the possibility of falling shrapnel from the interception,” the military announced on Telegram.

Israel’s emergency medical services, Magen David Adom (MDA), reported no injuries from the attack.

Following the incident, Yemeni military media announced that a significant statement from the Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) would be released in the coming hours. The attack is the latest in a series of long-range strikes launched by the YAF targeting Israeli assets in occupied Palestine.

This strike also triggered alarms in settlements along the coast and the occupied West Bank, causing millions of settlers to seek refuge in bunkers and safe rooms. Nine settlers sustained injuries while rushing to safety.

On Tuesday, the Israeli military concluded an investigation into its previous failure to adequately sound sirens during earlier attacks. In response, military command announced plans to expand warning systems across occupied territories, citing concerns over shrapnel and debris from interceptors or missiles.

The YAF has ramped up its missile attacks against Israel as an active demonstration of solidarity with the Palestinian people, who face ongoing violence amid what many describe as a genocidal war by the Israeli regime.

Simultaneously, the Yemeni Armed Forces continue to retaliate against aerial and naval assaults conducted by Israel, the United States, and the United Kingdom. Observers note that the escalating military exchanges reflect the region’s broader geopolitical tensions and shifting alliances. (ILKHA)
