The Israeli military says it's identified the launch of a missile from Yemen towards Israel. It says defence systems are working to intercept it. Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis joined the war earlier this week, with a series of missile attacks that were intercepted. And in Tel Aviv on Tuesday, nine people were injured by falling debris from missile interceptions.
