The Israeli military said a missile fired from Yemen crossed into central Israel and “fell in an open area”, AFP reports.
It said in a statement that “a surface-to-surface missile was identified crossing into central Israel from the East and fell in an open area. No injuries were reported.”
“The missile was fired from Yemen,” it added in a subsequent statement sent just before 7am (0400 GMT).
It said explosions “heard in the last few minutes” were from air-defence interceptors.
“The result of the interception is under review,” the military said.
