IDF says air force downed Yemen missile before it entered Israeli airspace​

The military says the missile fired from Yemen was downed by the air force before entering Israeli airspace.

A statement from the Israel Defense Forces says “the sirens were activated in accordance with protocol,” apparently due to concerns of falling debris.

The Magen David Adom ambulance service says it has received no direct reports of injuries from debris, though medics are treating several people suffering acute anxiety or who were hurt while rushing to shelters.

I watched a video last night that showed the results of a US strike in Yemen striking a target where missiles were stored. Missiles were self-launching left and right.

U.S. urges Israel to hold fire after Houthi missile fire, officials say​

The United States has asked Israel not to retaliate after Yemen’s Houthi rebels launched a ballistic missile toward central Israel overnight, senior Israeli officials said Thursday. Washington urged Jerusalem to leave the response to American forces, which have been conducting military operations against the Iran-backed group, according to sources who spoke to Ynetnews.

Israel is expected to comply with the U.S. request, refraining from airstrikes like those carried out in the past by the Israeli Air Force. Such operations are logistically complex due to the long distance between Israel and Yemen, requiring mid-air refueling. While past Israeli strikes have demonstrated the military’s reach and capabilities, the U.S. – which launched a special operation against the Houthis earlier this week – has greater capacity to conduct sustained attacks using aircraft stationed on its aircraft carriers.
