Yemen’s Houthi rebels on Saturday confirmed they hit a military target in central Israel’s Jaffa area near Tel Aviv with a hypersonic ballistic missile, in an attack that Israeli reports said injured at least 16 people. “The missile struck its target accurately and the defenses and interception systems failed to intercept it,” Houthi spokesman Yahya Saree said.
