Houthi missiles trigger sirens in central, southern Israel

Yemen-based Houthi rebels have said they fired a ballistic missile targeting Israel's defence ministry.

The missile triggered sirens in central Israel early Saturday, with its military saying there was minor damage from falling shrapnel.

The Iran-backed Houthis have been firing projectiles at Israel and at vessels on the crucial Red Sea shipping corridor in what they claim is solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza.

Israel has responded with repeated strikes against what it calls Houthi infrastructure at ports in Yemen and in the rebel-controlled capital, Sanaa.

Israel's military later Saturday reported another launch from Yemen that set off sirens in southern Israel, with no reported injuries.
