Dramatic footage released this morning (Sunday) reveals the moments when a ballistic missile fired from Yemen struck Ben Gurion Airport.
The IDF Spokesperson's Unit stated, "Following the sirens that sounded in a number of areas in Israel, several attempts were made to intercept the missile launched from Yemen. A fall was identified in the area of Ben-Gurion Airport. The incident is under review."
Magen David Adom (MDA) reported that several civilians were slightly injured as a result of the fall near Terminal 3, the airport's main international terminal.
The defense establishment estimates that the air defense systems missed the missile and were unable to intercept it. Both the Arrow and Thaad systems were deployed in failed interception attempts.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
The Houthi scum are not exactly a rebel posse. They control 75% of the land and 75% population in sh*thole Yemen. So how do you deal with these critters, unless you cut them off 100% from Iran.
Jews lived in Yemen. Just about all are in Israel now.
The Sunni Arabs in the middle east are chilled these days. They got rid of their fanatics. It is Iran that is always causing trouble. Done at the right time, a few well placed neutron bombs would solve this. Two over the Kremlin too.
Matter of fact Israel has some neutron bombs.
I hope you are mistaken. Atom bombs are bad enough.
Cut them off from Iran is the best strategy. They are hugely behind all of this. Taking down Russia and China would be icing on the cake. North Korea all by its lonesome will become very cooperative.
“The Sunni Arabs in the middle east are chilled these days. They got rid of their fanatics. “
Are you sure? That seems excessively rosy.
Nuke them. They fire a missile, Israel fires a nuke. I bet the attacks stop.
“The Sunni Arabs in the middle east are chilled these days. They got rid of their fanatics.”
yeah they get rid of the problematic ones by shipping them to the USA and Europe.........
Prince MBS neutralized all Sunni wacko fundamentalists in Saudi Arabia. Those 7th century fundies are done! as in DONE! in SA, and other Sunni Arab nations follow his/MBS leadership.
Yeah Sunni led Qatar is a problem
**********Yes, Qatar is a Sunni Muslim-led country. Most of the Qatari population, including the majority of citizens, are Sunni Muslims. The state-sponsored brand of Sunni Islam in Qatar is Salafism, making it one of the Salafi states in the Muslim world, alongside Saudi Arabia.
Agreed, Islam is Islam. It is not chilled.
โRadical islamistsโ are actually orthodox.
If their hands are not directly dirty, I imagine they too have proxies who are not so chilled
That US attack plan is working out real well. How we gonna take on Iran when we can't even stop a tribe of goat herders?
Them Hothies gotta stop shooting down our $30 million drones and causing expensive fighter jet aircraft to fall off of them aircraft carriers.
Bomb Yemen into the stone age and be done with it.
“Nuke them. They fire a missile, Israel fires a nuke. I bet the attacks stop.”
Make their ports unusable.
I think we all would agree that “payback” goes both ways.
Neutron bombs are “enhanced radiation” nuclear weapons. More energy released as neutron flux relative to pressure and heat. “Kills people but leaves buildings intact.” Not exactly, but bad enough.
They’re already there, except for the missiles and the piracy.
“Jews lived in Yemen. “
From the days of Solomon.
I don’t hold it against them that they’re getting back at us for getting back at them. The question is, how do they have the personnel and expertise to man the weapons that Iran gives them. Don’t they eventually run out of willing and able nut bags?
This is the key. Iran exports most of its oil through the terminals in Yemen. Cut that off and you create a choke point in the Iranian income stream. Do that long enough and the people in Iran will take care of the details.
Fall out travels on the winds, and even if it heads out to sea, Russia, Pakistan and China have nukes, too. And they are not on our side.
