The Israeli military successfully intercepted a surface-to-surface missile fired from the Red Sea region towards Israeli territory. The missile was neutralized using the 'Arrow' aerial defense system, with Israeli jets scrambled as a precaution. The incident occurred amidst escalating tensions in the Middle East due to Israel's conflict with Hamas in Gaza. Yemen's Iran-backed Huthi rebels had earlier fired drones towards Israel in retaliation. While the Huthis claimed involvement in the "resistance" against Israel, all aerial threats were intercepted outside Israeli territory, preventing any infiltrations. [photo courtesy: @htTimes/x ]
