"Following the sirens that sounded a short while ago in several areas in central Israel, a missile launched from Yemen was intercepted," a military statement said.
Israel's Magen David Adom emergency service said no one was hurt by the launch itself, while one man was hurt while seeking shelter.
The Houthis have regularly fired missiles and drones at Israel since the Gaza war broke out in October 2023.
The Houthis paused their attacks during a two-month ceasefire in the war that ended in March, but resumed them after Israel restarted its war on the besieged territory.
The group warned Monday it would impose a "naval blockade" on the Israeli port of Haifa after the country's military intensified its offensive in Gaza.
