Houthi spokesperson Yahya Saree said that his group targeted a vital target in central Israel with a hypersonic ballistic missile, saying the attack “successfully hit its target.”

He, however, did not provide any details about the nature of the target.

Saree vowed more missile and drone attacks until Israel’s ongoing onslaught on Gaza is halted and siege lifted.

The Israeli public broadcaster KAN earlier reported that a missile launched from Yemen had been intercepted by air defenses.

According to the same source, four Israelis were injured while rushing to shelters after air-raid sirens sounded in central Israel.
