Air raid sirens blared across central Israel, including at Tel Aviv’s international airport, shortly after Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu returned from a trip to the United States. The Israeli military reported intercepting a missile launched from Yemen, with no injuries reported following the incident.
It remains unclear if the missile was specifically targeting Netanyahu’s flight. The Prime Minister had cut his U.S. trip short to address the escalating conflict between Israel and Hezbollah.
Earlier on Saturday, Hezbollah confirmed that their leader and founding member, Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah, was killed in an Israeli airstrike in the suburbs of Beirut the day before.
