Yemen’s Armed Forces have hit the Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv after several attempts by the Israeli military to intercept it failed.
The missile bypassed four layers of air defense and landed in the heart of Ben Gurion Airport on Sunday, with both Arrow and THAAD systems failing to intercept the advanced missile.
Israeli daily Yedioth Aharonot, citing emergency services, said at least seven people were injured in the attack.
Israeli media published footage from the moment when a ballistic missile launched from Yemen made a “direct impact” in the main airport.
The majority of the Yemeni population is under the Houthi government. Aside from relations with other countries, they are pretty much the de facto current government of Yemen.
Describing the Houthis as illegitimate rebels now is akin to describing John Hancock and James Madison as illegitimate rebels in 1780.
