Air raid sirens have been activated in the Israeli-occupied territories after the Yemeni Armed Forces launched a ballistic missile in response to Israel's genocidal war on Gaza.

As reported by Israeli media, a new missile strike originating from Yemen sounded sirens in Tel Aviv and other communities across the occupied lands early on Saturday.

The missile attack caused widespread panic among illegal settlers, pushing hundreds of thousands of them to seek refuge in bomb shelters.

Israel's Magen David Adom (MDA) emergency response service has not reported any direct injuries resulting from the attack or from debris impacts.

The military subsequently asserted that its anti-air missile systems “intercepted” the projectile.

The development came two days after the Yemeni military claimed responsibility for a series of airstrikes against Israeli positions, using a “hypersonic ballistic missile” and three drones.

The Yemeni military spokesperson, Brigadier General Yahya Saree, said on Thursday that the missile and one drone targeted designated sites at the Negev desert, while two other drones were aimed at Ramon Airport in the southern city of Eilat. He described the attacks as “successful.”
