JERUSALEM, June 8 (Xinhua) -- The Israeli military said it intercepted a missile from Yemen Monday morning.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said in a statement that it identified and intercepted the missile launched from Yemen towards Israeli territory.
Media reports said the missile attack triggered sirens in central Israel, including the city of Tel Aviv.
The attack came after Israel's strikes on Iran earlier on Monday, which Israel said hit military targets in western and central Iran.
Iran's Islamic Revolution Guard Corps (IRGC) forces on Sunday launched ballistic missiles targeting the Ramat David Air Base in northern Israel in response to increased Israeli military attacks in southern Lebanon.
Israel on Sunday launched another strike on a Hezbollah stronghold in Beirut. Iran said its latest missile attacks on Israel were carried out in retaliation. ■
