SANA’A (Dispatches) -- 
Yemen’s Armed Forces have targeted Israel’s key Ben Gurion airport near Tel Aviv with a hypersonic ballistic missile, underscoring their ongoing support for Palestinians enduring nearly 22 months of Israeli military aggression in Gaza. 
The missile, dubbed “Palestine-2,” successfully disrupted operations at the airport, forcing over four million settlers to seek shelter and bringing the facility to a standstill, according to a statement released by Yemeni military officials.
The strike forms part of a broader aerial blockade that Yemeni forces have maintained against Israel since May, aiming to pressure the Zionist regime to end its genocidal campaign in Gaza and lift the siege imposed on the Palestinian enclave. 
Yemeni forces have repeatedly launched missile attacks against strategic Israeli targets, including Ben Gurion airport, as part of their pro-Palestinian operations initiated shortly after the outbreak of Israel’s October 7, 2023 offensive.
The sustained campaign has led to disruptions in international air travel to Israel, with Italy’s and India’s national airlines extending their suspension of flights to Ben Gurion until late September and October, respectively.
Israeli military correspondent Doron Kadosh reported that Yemeni forces have launched at least 15 missiles toward occupied Palestinian territories in the past month alone—averaging roughly one missile every two days. Since March, Yemen has reportedly fired approximately 67 ballistic missiles and deployed 18 armed drones targeting Israeli sites.
In their statement, Yemeni forces highlighted their ongoing surveillance of Israeli plans aimed at halting Yemen’s support for Palestine, including recent Israeli attacks on Yemeni infrastructure. 
Despite these hostile actions, the Yemeni military affirmed its vigilance and readiness to counter any aggression, declaring that all enemy plots and conspiracies have failed against their resolve.
