Silly clickbait title, but newsworthy all the same. This looks like the first instance of a successful ballistic missile interception in battle and not a test. I feel a chill because you never know what payload a ballistic missile is carrying until it reaches its target. Using them in war is a scary precedent.

I felt that same unease. It's very unlikely Yemeni rebels could get their hands on a nuclear device, and even more unlikely it would be small enough to launch on a rocket. But not impossible.
