Israel intercepts missile launched by Yemen’s Houthis

The sudden missile attack by Yemen's Houthi rebels toward Ben Gurion airport in Israel sent shockwaves across the region, prompting people in central Israel to panic as sirens blared. Interpolated by Israeli air defence systems, the projectiles landed harmlessly, marking a stark difference from previous attacks that had caused significant casualties and destruction. The incident followed US President Donald Trump's announcement halting Yemeni bombings under a ceasefire deal brokered by Oman with the Houthis, though ongoing Houthi strikes continue to target Israeli vessels near Gaza.
