The US military said it conducted an airstrike on Monday against a command and control facility operated by the Houthi militias in Yemen.
"The targeted facility was a hub for coordinating Houthi operations, such as attacks against US Navy warships and merchant vessels in the Southern Red Sea and Gulf of Aden," the US military's Central Command said in a post on X.
The airstrike came after the Israeli military said it intercepted a missile launched from Yemen that had triggered sirens across the Tel Aviv metropolitan area on Monday afternoon.
The missile was intercepted outside Israel’s borders, the military said.
However, shrapnel fell on the roof of a home in the east Jerusalem, which the military said was likely from one of the Israeli interceptor missiles.
There were no reports of casualties or major damage, according to Israel’s emergency services.
The Iranian-backed Houthis claimed responsibility for firing a hypersonic ballistic missile toward Tel Aviv.
The Houthis have repeatedly fired drones and missiles toward Israel since the start of the war in Gaza between Israel and Hamas, but nearly all of those weapons have been intercepted.
