Rocket sirens sounded in Tel Aviv as well as localities across central Israel on Saturday.
The IDF subsequently stated the sirens sounded in the center of the country after a missile was launched at Israel from Yemen.
The missile was intercepted by the IDF Aerial Defense Array outside of Israeli territory, the IDF said. No casualties have been reported except for injuries that occurred while civilians were running to protected areas and calls of stress symptoms, according to an MDA spokesperson.
The details of the incident are under investigation, the military added.
Later, Israel Police reported falls of missile projectiles on Israel's Route 375 near Tzur Hadassah, with some damage to property in the area. Officers from the Mateh Yehuda station, along with the Jerusalem Border Police arrived to the scene to secure the impact sites.
The Houthis said in an official statement saying that the timing of their missile would coincide with when Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu would return from New York City. "The missile force in the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out an operation targeting what is Israeli-called 'Ben-Gurion' Jaffa Airport, during the arrival of the criminal Benjamin Netanyahu," they said.
Houthis mourned death of Nasrallah earlier in the day
The missile from Yemen came hours after the Houthi terrorist organization mourned the death of Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, its ally in an Iran-backed alliance opposing Israel, in an Israeli airstrike in Beirut.
"The resistance will not be broken, and the Jihadist spirit of the Mujahideen brothers in Lebanon and on all fronts of support will grow stronger and bigger," the group said in a statement.
Both Hezbollah and the Houthis are part of the Axis of Resistance, an alliance built up over years of Iranian support against Israel and US influence in the Middle East.
