Israeli military says it intercepted missile from Yemen; Houthis claim responsibility

  • Between May 13 and 19, the Houthis launched multiple ballistic missile and drone strikes on Israel's Ben Gurion Airport and surrounding areas, disrupting operations and prompting flight suspensions.
  • These attacks intensified after Israel began a large-scale offensive in Gaza, leading the Houthis to declare aerial and naval blockades against strategic Israeli ports including Haifa.
  • In response, the Israeli Defense Forces intercepted most missiles and launched heavy airstrikes on Houthi-controlled ports al-Hodeidah and Salif, causing significant material damage but no casualties.
  • Houthi spokesperson Yahya Saree stated the hypersonic missile attack on Ben Gurion Airport "achieved its intended goals," forcing millions into shelters and halting airport operations.
  • The ongoing conflict suggests Israel will likely face continuing missile attacks and logistical disruptions from the Houthis until the Gaza hostilities end, as degrading their capabilities remains difficult.
