A missile launched from Yemen landed in the Tel Aviv area early Saturday after air defenses failed to intercept it, the Israeli military said.
Several people with light injuries were evacuated for medical treatment after the missile fell in the Tel Aviv-Jaffa area, a representative for the military said in a statement on Telegram.
The strike came two days after Israel attacked Houthi targets in Yemen. Those airstrikes on Thursday were launched hours after Israel said it had intercepted a missile from Yemen.
