Yemen’s Houthi rebels said on Thursday that they had launched a ballistic missile at Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv, according to Alqahera News.
The group offered no evidence to support the claim, and there were no immediate reports from Israeli authorities or local media confirming an attack on the airport, Israel’s primary international gateway.
The Houthis, who are backed by Iran, have escalated their regional operations in recent months, targeting Red Sea shipping lanes and threatening Israeli interests in response to the ongoing war in Gaza. A strike on Ben Gurion Airport, if verified, would mark a significant expansion of their reach and raise the stakes in the broader Middle East conflict.
Israeli officials have not yet issued a statement regarding the Houthi announcement. The situation remains fluid.
