Since hostilities reignited in the Gaza Strip about a month ago, Yemen has launched more than 16 ballistic missiles at Israel, according to Israeli sources cited by N12 News on Monday.
The attacks highlight the deepening regional tensions, with Israel once again facing threats from multiple fronts.
Israeli officials reported that nearly half of Yemen’s missile launches have failed due to technical malfunctions, significantly undermining efforts to strike Israeli territory.
However, the recent decline in Red Alert sirens across Israeli cities tells only part of the story.
Sources attribute the relative calm not only to fewer launches but also to the effectiveness of Israel’s advanced Arrow 3 missile defense system, which has repeatedly intercepted and destroyed incoming threats with remarkable precision.
Complementing these efforts, American interception systems have further strengthened Israel’s defensive shield against Yemen’s barrages.
The combination of Yemen’s faltering missile campaign and the coordinated, high-tech response from Israel and its allies paints a vivid picture of a conflict where technological superiority and strategic coordination are proving critical.
As the conflict in Gaza grinds on, Israel’s air defenses continue to play a critical role in maintaining stability amid persistent regional threats.
