Houthi Missile, headed to Israel, lands in Saudi Desert

A short time ago, the Houthis from Yemen launched a ballistic missile toward Israel. The missile fell in Saudi Arabia, far from the country's borders. This morning's launch comes hours after an unusual IDF evacuation notice for three ports in Yemen that have not yet been attacked. This is the 30th missile launched by the Houthis toward Israeli territory since the renewed fighting in the Gaza Strip two months ago (an average of one missile every two days). Eleven of the missiles failed en route and fell outside Israeli territory before alarms were activated—meaning slightly more than a third of the total launches the Houthis aimed at our territory.
