Houthis say fired ballistic at Ben Gurion Airport; “Israel” says intercepted

The “Israeli” army said it had intercepted a missile fired from Yemen on Sunday after air raid sirens sounded in Jerusalem and surrounding areas.

"Following the sirens that sounded a short while ago in several areas in Israel, a missile launched from Yemen was intercepted," the army said in a statement.

The Yemen's Houthis said they fired a ballistic missile at Ben Gurion airport.

The group's military spokesperson Yahya Saree said three drones were also launched at “Israel”.

The Iran-backed group has repeatedly launched missiles and drones at “Israel” in what they say is support for the Palestinians against the “Israeli” aggression.
