The missile did not pose a threat to Israel, so no sirens were activated. Notably, The Jerusalem Post previously reported on April 3rd that a similar incident occurred, where a Houthi missile en route to Israel also landed in Saudi Arabia.

This earlier report cited Army Radio as the source, which may also be the basis for the current claim, though this remains unconfirmed. We continue to monitor the situation closely.
