Yemen’s Houthi rebels fired a missile into central Israel on Sunday morning, a rare instance of a missile penetrating far into the country’s territory since its war in Gaza began.
The projectile crossed into Israeli territory and fell in an open area in central Israel, with no injuries reported, according to the Israel Defense Forces. Explosion sounds heard in the area originated from Israeli military interceptions, the IDF said, adding that it is still checking “the results of the interception.”
Videos and images shared by the Israel Fire and Rescue Authority on Telegram show large plumes of smoke billowing into the air over an open field, and shattered glass inside a train station in Modi’in, a city between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem.
That’s worrying, of course, if you fire enough missiles at Israel eventually one is going to hit without being intercepted, but do you think the world has underestimated the rebels in Yemen?
