Houthi terrorists in Yemen launched a missile, triggering sirens across central Israel, the IDF announced on Sunday. 

Missile fragments fell in the Hebron area of the West Bank, Reuters later reported.

Attempts were made to intercept the missile, and the missile was "likely intercepted," the IDF said. Authorities have not reported any injuries.

Two interceptor missiles were launched at the Houthi missile—first a Hetz (Arrow) missile and simultaneously an American THAAD missile, according to Maariv.

The military had reported earlier that two missiles had been launched.

Houthi missiles last triggered sirens in central Israel at the end of March.

Houthi missiles fall in Saudi Arabia

In early April, a ballistic missile launched from Yemen fell in Saudi Arabia as it was en route to Israeli territory.

This was the second time a Houthi missile has landed in Saudi Arabia while heading toward Israel.

The first time this occurred was in late March. 

This is a developing story.
