Iran-backed Houthis launched a ballistic missile at Israel, triggering air alert sirens in southern Israel, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a statement on Tuesday.
The Israeli military revealed that the missile was successfully shot down before crossing the border, adding that there are no reports of casualties.
This is the first Houthi attack on Israel since January 18, before the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas entered into force. The rebel group last week warned that it will resume strikes on Israel if it does not allow the entrance of humanitarian aid into Gaza.
