Israel Intercepts Drone Fired By Houthis, Iran Pumps Weapons Into Yemen, Warns Of "Full Scale War"

The Israel Defense Forces intercepted a missile launched from Yemen on January 5 before it entered Israeli airspace. Sirens went off in Talmei Elazar and explosions were heard across central Israel. Social media footage showed missile fragments falling after interception. Unlike previous attacks, sirens were not activated widely, indicating no direct threat to Israeli territory. While the IDF confirmed the interception, the Houthis have neither confirmed nor denied their involvement. Meanwhile, the US and UK reportedly conducted airstrikes in Yemen’s Saada city following the missile launch. Iran has significantly increased arms supplies to the Houthis, further escalating regional tensions. Iran's Foreign Minister warned that Israeli attacks could lead to a large-scale war.
