IDF Intercepts Drone Launched from Yemen Amid Rising Tensions
Military spokespersons confirmed that the drone posed a potential threat to southern infrastructure but was successfully neutralized without triggering air raid sirens. The operation reportedly relied on
long-range air defense systems and real-time surveillance.
The interception followed earlier claims by the Houthi group of a five-drone attack on Israeli sites. While Israeli officials have not confirmed the full extent of these attacks, they view the incident as a continuation of Iran-backed attempts to destabilize the region.
Defense Minister Yoav Gallant reiterated that Israel "will respond decisively to any threat from Yemen," and emphasized the government's coordination with international allies to address security challenges in the Red Sea and beyond.
