Yemen's Houthi group said on Thursday (10 July) they had attacked Israel's Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv area with a ballistic missile, while the Israeli military said the missile from Yemen was intercepted after air raid sirens were triggered in several parts of the country.
The attack triggered sirens in parts of central Israel, the Jerusalem area and some West Bank settlements according to officials.
Most of the dozens of missiles and drones they launched were intercepted or fell short according to authorities. Israel said it had carried out a series of retaliatory strikes.
The Iran-aligned Houthis have been firing at Israel and attacking shipping lanes. Traffic through the Red Sea, a critical waterway for the world's oil and commodities sectors, has dropped since the Houthi began targeting ships in November 2023 in what the group said was solidarity with Palestinians against Israel in the Gaza war.
Houthis said in May they would impose a "comprehensive" aerial blockade on Israel by repeatedly targeting its airports.
