Israel intercepts missile launched from Yemen
- On Friday, May 9, 2025, Israel intercepted a ballistic missile launched from Yemen by the Houthi group targeting central Israel near Ben Gurion airport.
- This missile launch followed a recent ceasefire deal mediated by Oman between the US and Houthis, which excluded Israel and did not stop attacks on Israeli territory.
- Air raid sirens sounded across central and southern Israel, and Israel’s Iron Dome and Arrow systems intercepted the missile before it could cause damage or injuries.
- Houthi spokesperson Yahya Saree described the weapon as a “hypersonic ballistic missile” targeting a “critical Israeli enemy location,” while Israeli Defence Minister Israel Katz promised a strong and decisive retaliation.
- The interception marks a continuation of hostilities by the Iran-aligned Houthis, who have pledged further attacks on Israel despite the US-Houthi ceasefire agreement.
