Houthis Claim Ballistic Missile Attack on Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv, Targeting Santa Ursula Ship on December 27
Dec 27, 2024, 11:20 AM
The Iran-backed Houthi rebels in Yemen have claimed responsibility for a ballistic missile attack targeting Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv. The attack reportedly occurred overnight, with the Houthis asserting that they successfully hit the airport using a hypersonic missile, despite Israeli air defenses. The operation was described as a retaliation against Israeli airstrikes that targeted Sanaa International Airport and other locations in Yemen. In addition to the missile strike, the Houthis also announced a drone attack on the Maersk container ship 'Santa Ursula' in the Arabian Sea, east of Socotra Island. This dual assault reflects escalating tensions in the region, particularly following recent Israeli military actions in Yemen. The Houthis stated that the missile attack disrupted airport operations, although Israeli sources indicated that the missile was intercepted without causing damage.
