Yemen's Huthi rebels claimed responsibility for a missile attack Sunday on Israel's main international airport. "The missile force of the Yemeni Armed Forces carried out a military operation targeting Ben Gurion Airport" with a "hypersonic ballistic missile", the Huthis said in a statement."

Israel has intercepted the vast majority of the Huthis' attacks, but on Sunday, authorities said a missile hit the area of Ben Gurion airport after a launch from Yemen. "The Yemeni Armed Forces hereby reiterate their warning to all international airlines against continuing their flights to Ben Gurion airport, as it has become unsafe for air traffic," the Huthis said.
