Houthi drone fired from Yemen hits central Israel
The Israeli military said Monday that a drone that appeared to have originated in Yemen slammed into a city in central Israel.
Video posted by Israeli news sites showed a large burst of smoke erupting from a high-rise apartment building.
The military said sirens were not sounded to warn of the incoming drone. There were no immediate reports of injuries.
Iran-backed militants in Yemen have been attacking Israel since Hamas’ assault on southern Israel in October 2023.
Their drones have at times evaded Israel’s sophisticated aerial defense system.
