Israeli PM vows retaliation after Houthi missile reaches central Israel

China Daily  

An employee sweeps shards of glass from an escalator reportedly damaged after a missile was fired from Yemen, inside a train station in the Israeli town of Modin on Sept 15, 2024. JERUSALEM -- Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday warned Houthi forces in Yemen that Israel would retaliate after a missile they launched struck central Israel, an area typically safe from projectiles. "The Houthis should already know that we exact a heavy price for any attempt to harm us," he added, referring to an Israeli airstrike on the Houthi-controlled Yemeni port city of Hodeidah on July 20, which killed at least six people, injured dozens of others, sparked a large fire, and caused extensive damage to the port's infrastructure. "An initial inquiry indicates the missile most likely fragmented in mid-air," the military said in a statement, adding that the attack triggered air raid sirens across central Israel and sent residents running to shelters. The missile marked the second time a projectile from Yemen has reached central Israel, following a Houthi drone attack in July that killed one person in Tel Aviv.
