CHAOS And PANIC In Tel Aviv As Houthis Launch Third Attack On Ben Gurion Airport In Two Days [Video]

CHAOS And PANIC In Tel Aviv As Houthis Launch Third Attack On Ben Gurion Airport In Two Days

Yemen's Armed Forces have launched a devastating hypersonic missile attack on Israel’s busiest airport — Ben Gurion, near Tel Aviv — marking the third strike in just two days. The missile, dubbed “Palestine-2,” caused widespread panic as sirens wailed and incoming flights were diverted or left circling above the Mediterranean. Israeli reports confirm the airport was shut down temporarily, halting all operations. Yemen’s spokesman, Yahya Saree, confirmed the mission’s “complete success,” warning further strikes will continue as long as Gaza remains under siege. The aerial blockade imposed by Yemen since May has escalated, shifting from drone strikes to high-powered ballistic weaponry. Saree issued a chilling warning to Arab and Muslim nations — if Israel succeeds in Gaza, “your turn will come.” Yemen’s intensifying operations, rooted in solidarity with Palestine, are now disrupting Israeli airspace and testing regional security in ways unseen before. The message is clear: the war in Gaza won’t stay in Gaza. #YemenStrikes #BenGurionAirport #IsraelUnderAttack #HypersonicMissile #Palestine2 #GazaSiege #MiddleEastCrisis #YahyaSaree #TelAvivMissileStrike #YemenSolidarity #GazaGenocide #BallisticMissileAttack #ArabWorldWarning #IsraelBlockade #ZulfiqarMissile #SanaaStrike #AirportShutdown #IsraelNews #GazaWar2025 #MissileAlert ~ED.346~HT.408~GR.122~
