US airstrikes on Yemen resumed on Thursday evening, targeting sites in the western coastal city of Hodeidah.

Houthi media reported that "the American enemy launched four raids on the Al-Kutib area in the Mina district of Hodeidah," without providing further details about the nature and results of the raids.

In this context, and shortly after the US raids, air raid sirens sounded in occupied Jerusalem, its suburbs, and the Tel Aviv area.

The Israeli military announced that it had detected a missile being launched from Yemen, and that it was intercepted outside Israeli airspace, according to a statement.

This is the second time air raid sirens have sounded in Israel within hours, having previously sounded at dawn on Thursday following a missile launch from Yemen.

In "solidarity with Gaza" in the face of the Israeli war, the Houthis began targeting Israeli-owned or Israeli-linked cargo ships in the Red Sea, or anywhere else within their reach, with missiles and drones in November 2023.

The Houthis also launched occasional missile and drone attacks on Israel, some of which targeted Tel Aviv, before halting them with the entry into force of the ceasefire in Gaza.
