Israel has vowed to retaliate against Houthi rebels after an attack on the Ben Gurion airport near Tel Aviv. The Houthis responded to the attacks, saying that the terrorist group has no “red lines” when it comes to fighting against Israel.
The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed that it had failed to intercept the missile despite several attempts. “An impact was identified in the area of Ben Gurion Airport,” the IDF said in a post on Telegram. The Israeli Air Force is investigating the failure.
Israel’s main airport was struck by a ballistic missile fired by Yemen’s Houthi rebels on Sunday morning. The missile hit a grove near an access road inside the perimeter of Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv. Media reports suggest that at least six people were wounded. –RT
Israel has not yet launched strikes against Yemen in response to the Houthi attacks, but has vowed that revenge will come.
The United States, however, began air and naval strikes against Houthi targets in March, citing threats to Red Sea shipping. Last week, US President Donald Trump ordered the Pentagon to intensify strikes in Yemen and warned that the Houthis would be “completely annihilated” if they continued their attacks. The UK has also taken part in the strikes, with the Defense Ministry saying it targeted a Houthi-controlled facility.
Russia has allegedly urged the U.S. to cease striking Yemen as punishment for Houthi involvement in the Gaza conflict. Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov called for an immediate end to the use of force and urged all sides to engage in political dialogue.
The U.S. has been accusing Iran of arming the Houthi rebels, also making a vow that there would be “consequences”. However, no such consequences have occurred as of yet. Tehran has denied these allegations.
