At least 11 Israelis were injured early Tuesday while rushing to shelters after a missile launched from Yemen targeted central Israel, according to Israeli public broadcaster KAN.

The Israeli army said its air defenses intercepted the missile before it entered Israeli airspace. Air-raid sirens were sounded across central Israel, prompting hundreds of thousands to seek shelter.

Medical teams treated 11 people for injuries sustained while running to shelters, with four others receiving treatment for panic, the broadcaster reported.

The Houthi group later confirmed that it had carried out the strike, saying that it targeted the Israeli Defense Ministry with a hypersonic ballistic missile.

    At least a hundred thousand people have been slaughtered, and we're expected to feel bad for 11 settlers who tripped and fell running to their shelters from a single return missile?

      Also they got hit because Israel intercepted the missile above them instead of allowing it to land on the military target. At least some of them were hurt by debris from the interceptor missile instead of the Houthi missile.
