Houthi rebels officially admit to launching missile strike on Tel Aviv airport

Houthi rebels claimed responsibility for a missile attack on Tel Aviv airport, escalating tensions in the region. The militants, who have faced repeated U.S. strikes in recent days, launched a ballistic missile towards Ben Gurion Airport near Tel Aviv, according to the group’s military spokesperson.

The Israeli military confirmed that a missile was intercepted after being launched from Yemen, triggering sirens in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Despite the scare, there were no reported serious injuries, as Israel’s ambulance service quickly responded to the situation.

The attack comes amid heightened hostilities between Israel and the Houthis, with U.S. President Donald Trump threatening to take action against Iran for its alleged support of the Yemeni rebel group. The missile launch underscores the volatile situation in the region, as tensions continue to simmer between the various factions.

The incident serves as a stark reminder of the ongoing conflict in Yemen and its ripple effects across the Middle East. As the situation unfolds, all eyes remain on the region, waiting to see how the international community will respond to the latest escalation of violence.
