Warning sirens sounded in Wadi Araba and the Dead Sea area, in occupied Palestine, following a suspected missile attack from Yemen, early on Sunday.
The Israeli military spokesperson said that a missile was successfully intercepted before reaching its targets, said to be near the Palestinian-Jordanian border.
Earlier on Saturday, the Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) announced they carried out a military operation targeting the Nevatim airbase in the al-Naqab region of southern occupied Palestine. The operation involved the use of a hypersonic Palestine-2 ballistic missile. According to Brigadier General Saree, the missile reached the Nevatim airbase after the Israeli occupation's defense systems failed to intercept it.
In their official statement, the YAF emphasized their commitment to resisting the US aggression and highlighted ongoing efforts to enhance their military capabilities. They stressed that defensive and support operations, including attacks like the Nevatim airbase attack, will continue until the aggression on Gaza ends and the blockade is lifted.
Israeli media reported that a missile had been launched from Yemen toward a target in the occupied al-Naqab desert, claiming that the Israeli military had intercepted it.
However, the YAF affirmed the success of their Palestine-2 missile strike, contradicting the Israeli occupation's version of events.
