Israel's army confirmed it struck an "energy infrastructure site" in Yemen, the latest offensive against the Houthi group which has launched attacks at Israel in solidarity with the Palestinians in Gaza.
There were no immediate reports of casualties.
On Thursday Israel said it intercepted a missile fired from Yemen, with the Houthis later claiming responsibility for it.
Beyond attacks on Israel, the Houthis have also targeted alleged Israeli-linked ships in the Red Sea and Gulf of Aden off Yemen.
In May, the rebels cemented a ceasefire with the United States that ended weeks of intense US strikes, but vowed to continue targeting Israeli ships.
