The Houthis confirm the launch of a ballistic missile towards Ben Gurion Airport.

The Houthis announced they launched a "ballistic missile" toward Ben Gurion Airport in Tel Aviv on Friday, shortly after the Israeli military announced it had intercepted a missile fired from Yemen.

Houthi military spokesman Yahya Saree said, "The Yemeni armed forces' missile force carried out a qualitative military operation targeting Lod Airport, known in Israel as Ben Gurion Airport... with a hypersonic ballistic missile," and launched a drone that "targeted a vital enemy target" in central Israel.
