Yemen’s Houthi rebels have claimed responsibility for launching a missile attack targeting Israel’s main airport, Ben Gurion International.

This marks the second such attempt by the Houthis following an airstrike conducted by Israel on a rebel-held port in Hodeida just a day prior.

According to military sources, the Israeli Air Force successfully intercepted the incoming missile, preventing any potential damage or casualties within the vicinity of the airport.

The incident has heightened concerns over the ongoing tensions between Israel and Yemen, with both sides engaging in a series of escalating military actions that pose a threat to regional stability.
