Houthis launch a ballistic missile at Israel... and the Israeli army admits it exploded in the air Sana'a - Arabian Sea The Houthi group announced, in an official statement, the launch of a long-range ballistic missile targeting Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv, in one of the most daring operations since the Yemeni group engaged in the regional conflict front in solidarity with Gaza. The Israeli army admitted that the missile entered the airspace of occupied Palestine before it "fragmented in the air," without causing direct material damage, but it forced millions to go down to shelters and paralyzed air traffic temporarily. Observers believe that the real importance of the event is not in the direct military impact, but in the symbolic message sent by the group: its possession of a threat capability that transcends the region, and the transformation of Yemen into a strategic platform in the heart of the Arab-Israeli conflict. This development is also expected to push the United States and Britain to strengthen their military presence in the Red Sea, which portends further militarization of the region.
