Iranian Yemeni rebels fire ballistic missile at central Israel
A missile fired by Yemen's Iran backed rebels landed in an open area in central Israel prompting air raid sirens at Ben Gurion International Airport but there were no casualties or major damage. Israel said the surface to surface missile was intercepted and fragments were seen in Modiin. The attack marks continued cross border strikes linked to the Gaza war and drew a strong denial from Prime Minister Netanyahu of any restraint. Separately an Israeli military probe linked to three dead hostages suggested they were likely killed in a November airstrike that also killed a Hamas figure.
