Sirens sounded on Thursday evening in several areas in central Israel, including Tel Aviv, the coastal plain, the Judean foothills, Samaria, and the Binyamin Region, after the Houthi terrorist rebels launched a missile from Yemen toward Israel.

Shortly after the sirens, the IDF announced that the missile was intercepted.

The Magen David Adom ambulance service noted that no injuries were reported as a result of the launch.

The police updated that they received several reports of fallen interceptor missile fragments in southern Jerusalem and a community near the city. No one was injured.

As a result of the attack, the Israeli soccer State Cup between Beitar Jerusalem and Hapoel Be'er Sheva, which was in its 40th minute at Tel Aviv's Bloomfield Stadium, was suspended. It has since resumed.

Among those in the crowd at the game was Israeli President Isaac Herzog. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, a fan of the Jerusalem club, also planned to attend but did not due to strict security arrangements.
