Israeli Ben Gurion Airport unsafe until Gaza aggression ends: Yemen
Brigadier General Yahya Saree

The Yemeni Armed Forces (YAF) have declared that Israel's Ben Gurion Airport is now unsafe for air traffic and will remain so until Israeli aggression against Gaza ends and the blockade is lifted, Press TV reported.

In a statement released on Saturday, military spokesman Brigadier General Yahya Saree announced that Yemen had targeted Ben Gurion Airport in the occupied "Yaffa" region with a Palestine-2 hypersonic ballistic missile.

The operation, he said, was carried out "in support of the oppressed Palestinian people and their courageous resistance."

This marked the third such missile operation in the past 48 hours, according to Saree, who confirmed that it had successfully achieved its objective.

Additionally, Saree reported that for the sixth consecutive day, Yemeni "UAV Force" carried out operations against US naval assets in the Red Sea, specifically targeting warships linked to the USS Harry S. Truman.
