In a seldom-seen visual, footage emerges depicting Israel’s Arrow air defense system successfully intercepting a long-range rocket launched by Houthi rebels in Yemen. The video captures the moment when an interceptor missile is deployed from Eilat, situated at the southern extremity of Israel along the Red Sea.Distinguished from the Iron Dome system, Arrow is specifically engineered to intercept long-range rockets, whereas the Iron Dome is tailored for short-range interceptions. Notably, this conflict marks the inaugural use of the Arrow system, and just last month, it achieved a historic milestone by becoming the first system to intercept a missile at the outer reaches of Earth’s atmosphere.
