IDF intercepts Houthi ballistic missile fired at central Israel for 3rd time this month

The IDF intercepted a Houthi ballistic missile fired at central Israel for the third time this month. The missile was shot down by air defenses outside the country's borders, causing slight damage near the Jerusalem-area community of Tzur Hadassah. The missile was fired in response to the assassination of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah. The Houthis also claimed responsibility for an attack on Tel Aviv and Ashkelon, but the IDF intercepted the missile and was unaware of any drone reaching Israel. Israel has yet to retaliate for these attacks.
