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.
We should be able to be pro-palestine and still be capable of calling this a terrorist attack. There are hundreds, if not thousands, of people who have nothing to do with the war that could have been killed in this attack. I work in aviation, for an airline that has regular flights to Tel Aviv, and it terrifies me that I, or someone close to me could've been there.
