SANAA, Dec. 1 (Xinhua) -- Yemen's Houthi group said Sunday that it launched a missile toward Israel in the morning, "hitting a vital target."

"We attacked a vital target in the Jaffa area with a hypersonic missile," Houthi military spokesperson Yahya Sarea said in a statement aired by Houthi-run al-Masirah TV.

"The missile successfully hit its target," Sarea noted, vowing that the group will launch more long-range missiles at Israel until "war in Gaza stops."

Meanwhile, Israel's military said Sunday that it intercepted a ballistic missile launched from Yemen before it entered Israeli airspace, with no injuries reported.

Since November 2023, the Houthi group has launched rocket and drone attacks on Israel and disrupted "Israeli-linked" shipping in the Red Sea, allegedly to show solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza amid the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Enditem
